# Naples Chapel of Sansevero and the Veiled Christ with Ticket

**Guidekin's take:** A guided visit inside the Sansevero Chapel with the ticket included: the Veiled Christ, the Anatomical Machines and the story of Prince Raimondo di Sangro, with a tier that adds a walk through the historic centre. Children need their own ticket, late arrivals lose the slot, and the chapel takes wheelchairs. 4.6 from 192 reviews at €32 per person.

**Add the old town?:** English Sansevero + Old Town option: chapel entry and centre walk at €32 per person; arrive on time. 4.6 from 192 reviews. Trade-off: Children need tickets; late arrivals lose their place. (last checked September 22, 2026)

## Overview

Inside you can admire the Veiled Christ, one of the most mysterious sculptures ever created... Our guides will tell you the myths and secrets about its creation.
You will have the opportunity to admire the Anatomical Machines and we will tell you the story of Prince Raymond of Sangro who mixes genius, art, science and alchemy. While you can enjoy the beautiful frescoes, our guide will reveal the esoteric meanings hidden in the works.
