Santa Maria della Verità (once called Sant'Agostino degli Scalzi or Santa Maria dell'Oliva) is a church in rione Materdei, in the quartiere of Stella of Naples, Italy.
The church was originally attached to the Discalced Augustinians, who arrived in 1593 to Naples, and had settled in the adjacent convent in 1597.
The church was the setting of scenes in the 1954 movie L'oro di Napoli by Vittorio De Sica.
[1] Like many churches in Venice it was damaged by the 1980 Irpinia earthquake, and has been abandoned for years, during which artworks and marbles have taken away, some stolen.
Frescoes and canvases were painted by Massimo Stanzione, Giacomo del Po, Andrea d'Aste, Domenico Antonio Vaccaro, but some of the works have been transferred to the Museo di Capodimonte, such as canvases of Luca Giordano and Mattia Preti.
