The church of the Croce di Lucca is a religious edifice in central Naples, Italy, on the Via dei Tribunali. In 1534, the husband and wife, Andrea Sbarra and Cremona Spinelli founded a this site a monastery of the Carmelites. It was devoted to the image of the crucifix, similar to one venerated in Lucca. Two years later, the widowed Spinelli became a nun. Later endowments came from the Prince of Altamura, who had five daughters join the order: Aurelia, Maria, Elena, Eleonora, and Elisabetta del Giudice. The church we see now was decorated in the 17th century, and remains despite the demolition of the once adjacent monastery.
