Chiesa di Santa Luciella ai Librai
www.respiriamoarte.it

The Cultural Association Respiriamo Arte carries out guided tours every day in the small Church of Santa Luciella ai Librai. Founded in 2013 by the desire of four young Neapolitans to enhance the cultural heritage of the city and create jobs for young professionals, Respiriamo Arte with great commitment and dedication has made accessible again this monument completely forgotten and disfigured for over 30 years. After the necessary operations of security, restoration and cleaning, since 2019 Santa Luciella has been returned to the city as a place of worship, social inclusion and tourist and cultural development through projects and initiatives implemented by the association. The Church, founded by Bartolomeo Di Capua in 1327, is dedicated to Saint Lucy, the patron saint of the eyesight. In the XVIII century it became, in fact, a place of worship of the Corporation of Pipernieri, Tagliamonti and Fabbricatori (stonemasons) who entrusted the saint with the protection of the eyes, so often put at risk by their hard work. In the hypogeum is also kept the famous skull with ears, emblematic expression of the so-called “cult of capuzzelle”. A very particular skull to which the Neapolitans until a few decades ago turned their prayers, in the hope that listening to them, took them directly to the afterlife: a real messenger between the world of the living and the dead.
