Castel Nuovo - Maschio Angioino
Castel Nuovo - Maschio Angioino is a medieval castle near the sea with iconic architecture. Many visitors claim the outside view is the most impressive, so be sure to stop for photos. Once inside, you can find a 15th-century bronze door with a cannonball embedded in it, historical artwork, and other antiquities. Also look for the glass-floored room that looks down into the catacombs, which house some unearthed skeletons. English translations are not typically offered, so consider hiring a guide before you go. Start your trip to Naples by creating a personalized itinerary on Inspirock.

From the outside this castle Nuovo looks very beautiful. I do believe that the story about this castle is very unique, but unfortunately this is not visible on the inside. You need to buy your ticket online (€6 p.p) and glad we choose the one without a guide. Nothing inside those walls could blew me away of beautiness, so it was a 1 time visit for inside. On the other hand, the outside has some real nice spots to look at and the total view is amazing. Positive is that sightseeing Napoli has its starting point at this location. So easy to hop on to your next location in Napoli.

One of the most important sights in Naples. It used to be the palace of King Alphonse who put a lot of secret symbols all around the castle. I highly recommend the guided tour. It' only 10 Euros. Friendly local young guides explain you in details the history of the castle and all the symbols build in it.
