San Francesco di Paola is a prominent church located to the west in Piazza del Plebiscito, the main square of Naples, Italy.
In the early 19th century, King Joachim Murat of Naples (Napoleon's brother-in-law) planned the entire square and the large building with the colonnades as a tribute to the emperor.
Ferdinand I continued the construction - finished in 1846 - but converted the final product into the church one sees today.
In the chapels on the right, we find the following altarpieces: San Nicola da Tolentino and St Francis of Paola receives a stem of charity from an Angel, by Nicola Carta, Final Communion of San Ferdinando di Castiglia by Pietro Benvenuti, a Transit di St Joseph by Camillo Gerra, the Immaculate Conception and the death of Sant'Andrea Avellino by Tommaso de Vivo.
In the apse is a painting of St Francis of Paola resuscitates a dead man by Vincenzo Camuccini.
