Great views from the highest point in Naples. Cheap to enter but it sure is sad to see the modern quantity of scratchings into a historic monument. Not much else here- no visitor center etc, just a big climb, lofty walls and an impressive view. There’s a modern art gallery but I think that’s a particular taste.

Worth visiting in Naples. Tickets were Euro 2.5 after 4.30 PM. Before that its Euro 5. A very beautiful view of Naples and Visuvious Mountain. A good one hour is enough for the entire visit.

1. Tickets are 5 euros.
2. Tickets can be purchased in cash. Tickets cannot be purchased with a bank card.
3. Cell phone reception is very poor, so it is not possible to book tickets online at the site.
4. Inside the building looks like you are entering a huge abandoned building (because of the graffiti on the walls).
5. there is a bar and toilets at the top of the building and what appears to be a museum .......
6.From the top of the building you can look out over Vesuvius.(I think it's a great viewpoint)
7.If the weather is bad, I recommend you to cancel your trip
8.I recommend coming here in summer to watch the sunset
Giving 5 stars is to support the staff, who are really kind and friendly!

Getting to this castle is a battle with the stairs, but brace yourself for the reward. The panoramic view of Naples with Vesuvius in the background makes it all worthwhile. Truly breathtaking!

What a nice place! It has by far the best views of Naples as you can see in any direction. Price was 5 euros but totally worth it. I suggest to head there in afternoon as you will blessed by amazing sunset views and also the Vesubius.

This castle is perched on top of a hill overlooking all of Naples and much of the Amalfi coast. I highly recommend visiting this place as you can walk throughout many places in the castle and along the fort walls. It's a wonderful experience.

I had a great time visiting Castel Sant'Elmo. The castle sits atop a hill, offering breathtaking panoramic views of Naples and the sparkling sea. The sight of the azure waters meeting the coastline is simply mesmerizing. Exploring the castle itself was a unique experience, with its intricate architecture and rich history. It's definitely worth a visit if you want to soak in the beauty of Naples and enjoy the magnificent sea view. Don't miss out on this gem!

I witnessed one of the most beautiful sunsets in my life here. Unfortunately volcano area was a little cloudy that I couldn't have a amazing view of it. So you better to check the sky before you go. Castle has very flexible working time so I think here is best option to watch the sunset in the city.

Easily the most beautiful place in Naples! Nothing compares with the views from the top of it, Naples on your palm, stunning beauty! 5€ is nothing for the goosebumps you get when you climb up the castle.
2024-02-03 10:37:52 GMT
If you want to have the most beautiful view ever, go there! Especially for the sunset! You will see all sides of Naples, the islands and the sea!
For Europeans under 25 the entrance is 2€
Besides that, the place only has a little art museum and a café with a great view and reasonable prices!

Perched high above the city, Castel Sant'Elmo offers an unrivaled vantage point. On a clear day, visitors are treated to breathtaking panoramas of Naples, the majestic Vesuvius, and the tapestry of surrounding cities. The castle itself is a testament to the rich history of the region, beckoning travelers to dive deep into the annals of time.
However, a word to the wise: the journey to this magnificent viewpoint involves navigating steep cobblestone paths. It's a small price to pay for such a rewarding experience. With every step, you're ascending towards one of Naples' most spectacular views. An absolute must-visit.

The best view on the bay by far !
Highly recommend to go there if you want a 360 panorama of the entire region.
Suitable for families and elderly people with funicular access.

Great place for a panoramic view of Napoli. Breathtaking views including Vesuvius on a clear day.
Temperature can be slightly cooler at the top.
Sunset is beautiful.
You can meander down hill through the cobbled streets of Napoli. You can get the funicular from Via Toledo or Montesanto. Montesanto is closer.

We walked up the mountain to the top. We were going to take the cable car, but we got there signing their afternoon break and we did not want to wait until 4pm. The views along the way up were nice and interesting. There are many graffiti on the wall along the way up. We also smelt some unpleasant smells along the way.

Castle Sant'Elmo offers a captivating blend of history and breathtaking views. The fortress itself is a beautifully preserved piece of Naples' past, with well-preserved architecture and informative exhibits. However, it's the panoramic vistas of the city and the bay that steal the show. A must-visit for history enthusiasts and anyone seeking a unique perspective of Naples.

We ascended to a breathtaking vantage point overlooking Naples and the surrounding islands. Our journey began with a ride on the funicular, roughly 15 minutes in duration (follow the signs for guidance). The entrance fee was a nominal cost, granting us access to the rooftop where we were treated to an awe-inspiring panoramic view. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience!

The best view of the town and bay in Naples. An absolute must when you are in town. Ideal for sunset , the last entry is at 18h30 and the place closes at 19h30. There is nothing to visit inside the castle, but the view from the top. The ticket of 3,50 euro for an adult is perfectly adequate.
You climb the ramp for 15 minutes and then are rewarded by a spectacular view.
Ideal is to take the Funicular to the nearby station.

Beautiful view of the city and the golf of Napoli. I was told the sunset over the sea is amazing, but during Summer it's impossible to see it from the castle, since it closes at 18:30 and the sunset is way later. I don't recommend going if you are already tired, you have to walk a lot uphill. Take some comfy shoes and enjoy!

Stunning views of Naples and the whole bay... absolutely fantastic. Can see Vesuvio too when the haze clears. One downside is there's nowhere to buy refreshments so, take a bottle of water with you. Also, if you have any dignity, don't use the bathrooms in the castle as you won't be impressed.

Such a beautiful place with absolute the best view of Naples and the Vesuvius volcano if you go on a day without clouds.
