Early Christian frescoes

Santa Restituta is a church in Naples, southern Italy, dedicated to Saint Restituta.

It is the original 6th-century paleo-Christian church on the site where the Cathedral of Naples now stands, and was rebuilt and incorporated into the cathedral when it built in the 13th century.

Santa Restituta has a nave with two aisles divided by 27 antique columns, and forms a large, separate part of the cathedral.
