Explore these walks
Naples's revolts can be followed through places where power was contested and justice exercised. These routes connect conflicts, punishments and particular lives. They ask what pushed the city to respond and what those responses brought about, paying attention to what remained in the memory of its streets and their later stories.
In “Masaniello and Market Square”: You see where Masaniello was born and finish at the Carmine, where he was killed, where Spain turned the rebels' tower into a castle, where some bones lie that may be Corradino's, and where Naples said goodbye to Totò.
In “The Square of Kings”: The monumental heart of Naples, told from the street: the theatre built in seven months, the café a prefect shut down, the queen's pizza and its suspicious letter, the square Murat wanted for himself and a vote cast in front of everyone.
In “Santa Lucia and the Egg Castle”: Walk from Santa Lucia to the Egg Castle to meet the people behind the view.

Walk from Santa Lucia to the Egg Castle to meet the people behind the view.
You begin at the portico of the Pio Monte, where seven young noblemen commissioned a painting of mercy from an artist on the run from a murder conviction.
In the church of the Spaniards, a grand tomb is waiting with a surprise, and from there you step out onto Via Toledo, the street the viceroy laid out.
Walk Naples with attention and an appetite. Narrow streets, slopes and the sea change the pace; leave room to look and to step aside for a moment.
