Spaccanapoli è il nome popolare del decumano inferiore del centro storico di Napoli, un lungo asse urbano est-ovest e non un monumento antico separato.1
La storia
Che cosa stai guardando
Spaccanapoli is the popular name for the lower decumanus of Naples’ historic centre, a long east-west urban axis rather than a separate ancient monument. UNESCO identifies the rectangular grid of Greek Neapolis as still discernible in the present urban fabric, but the route should not be described as unchanged from antiquity. Via San Biagio dei Librai, identified by the Ministry of Culture as Spaccanapoli, includes Palazzo Diomede Carafa, whose fabric documents the transition from Gothic forms to Renaissance taste.
A route through Naples’ layered historic centre that makes the ancient street grid legible alongside later medieval and Renaissance fabric.
