Via San Gregorio Armeno

TIME : 2016/2/18 21:07:14

Dismissed by serious collectors, this narrow street remains famous across Italy for its pastori (Christmas crib figurines) nonetheless. Connecting Spaccanapoli with Via dei Tribunali, the decumanus maior (main road) of ancient Neapolis, its clutter of shops and workshops peddle everything from doting donkeys to kitsch celebrity caricatures. At No 8 you'll find the workshop of Giuseppe Ferrigno , whose terracotta figurines are the most famous and esteemed on the strip.
