    The Certosa di San Martino was consecrated in 1368. It was given a purely Gothic style which in 1600 will be converted into Baroque. It will be in the following century that the Maddalena chapel, the Refectory and the Cloister will be annexed. Among the personalities who worked there, Giordano, Vaccaro and De Mura stand out. In 1866 Fiorelli will establish the museum that was intended to preserve the "homeland memories" of the city.

    The Charterhouse includes the monks' cemetery, the procurators cloister, the big cloister, and the church. The vault still shows the original 14th century frame, as well as impressive frescoes by Giovanni Lanfranco, and paintings by Caracciolo, Finoglia, Reni, Ribera, and Stanzione. The Maddalena chapel, the Conversi Choir, the sacristy, and the fresco of the Treasure are very well preserved. In 1866, Giuseppe Fiorelli founded the National Museum of San Martino, seat of the collection of art objects connected with Naples and the history of the southern kingdom. The Charterhouse of San Martino shares the highest point of the city of Naples with Sant'Elmo Castle. In addition to the architectural beauties of the monastery and the rich collection of the museum, unobstructed views of the city, the bay, and the surrounding countryside with Vesuvius reigning supreme make a visit to San Martino an unforgettable experience.
