What an amazing experience!
It’s a wonderful experience seeing this artwork by Giuseppe Sanmartino. Amazing to learn its history.

Great tour - bad timing
Do not take your camera - no photos allowed. Our group was scheduled for 5pm - we actually were admitted around 5:45! So do not schedule another activity afterwards. Adriana was terrific guide - made the experience so much richer with backstory and hidden facets of the chapel.

Amazing Veiled Christ viewing experience
Francesca told us many things that we would not have noticed in our own. She was very friendly and kept us engaged the whole time. The Veiled Christ really has to be seen to be believed and seeing it with someone as knowledgeable as Francesca made it very special. The audio setup worked very well to hear her even with the crowds.

Emotional
A masterpiece that is definitely worth the visit. We approached the Sansevero Chapel through word of mouth from friends and acquaintances who had recommended we visit it: the weaving of the veil has something incredible.

Beauty cannot be described, it must be admired.
Interesting and definitely worth doing. The beauty of the Veiled Christ above all and the opulence of the Chapel are impressive.

Breathtaking.... Moving due to such beauty
I recommend a guide who narrates and explains in every detail the wonder of the Veiled Christ and the chapel

Incredible works
Not only the Veiled Christ, but also make sure to hear the stories behind Disinganno and Pudicizia. It is absolutely worth it.
