HISTORY: In Piazza Plebiscito stands the Basilica of San Francesco da Paola, an impressive neoclassical temple with a circular plan, it is one of the largest churches in Naples. A church born from a vow. King Ferdinand of Bourbon wanted to build this church because he managed to reconquer the kingdom from the French as a thanksgiving to San Francesco di Paola. Due to its circular shape, it is reminiscent of the Pantheon in Rome. Externally, there are 48 stone columns from Pozzuoli. The dome is wonderful.
