Parco dei Ventaglieri
In the heart of Naples’ most authentic neighborhoods, where streets climb and narrow, an unexpected green space opens up. Parco dei Ventaglieri is a quiet urban garden set within the Spanish Quarters — a place where the city can be seen from above and experienced at a slower pace.
- A park born from regeneration
The park was created by restoring a former terraced area once used for agriculture and later abandoned. Its transformation is part of a broader urban regeneration effort, giving new life to a dense and vibrant neighborhood.
Today, it stands as a symbol of a city that evolves while staying true to itself.
- A vertical landscape
The park develops across multiple levels, following the natural slope of the hill.
Stairs, terraces and paths guide visitors through greenery and open views.
From here, you can see the rooftops of the Spanish Quarters, the historic center
glimpses of the sea.
- Curiosities to discover
The name “Ventaglieri” may derive from historical craft activities linked to fan-making.
It is one of the few green spaces within the Spanish Quarters.
The park is deeply connected to the local community and everyday life.
- A different Naples
Parco dei Ventaglieri is not a monumental landmark, but a lived space — a place to walk, pause and observe. Here, Naples reveals a more authentic and human dimension.
