Chiostro di San Francesco

An incredible, authentic Italian location if you are planning your Amalfi Coast wedding. The atmosphere can only be fully appreciated when you visit and for a fully legal ceremony it really is a very special space.
As a destination wedding planning company we are lucky to get to work in the most beautiful parts of the world, and for this UK/Italian wedding in 2023 we couldn't recommend Chiostro and Villa Antiche Mura highly enough.

Nice arts place to visit if you are in Sorrento

Lovely Art display by Dana Point California artists, featuring the incredible David Kizziar!

In love. If you go further down to the left of the main doors to the church you can escape the hustle of Sorrento beachgoers. It's currently undergoing refurbishments upstairs so I wasn't able to see the swing or view, but it was still so worth it. So peaceful and absolutely lovely.

Such a beautiful location for a wedding ceremony!

As a wedding photographer, I get to travel around Europe visiting some of the most best wedding venues. The cloisters is truly unique and a beautiful location for a wedding ceremony before choosing a local venue like Villa Antiche Mura for your wedding reception.

Highly recommended.

Wonderful free historic cloister to visit! The entry doorway feels a bit hidden so look for signs. It is one of the oldest monuments of Sorrento and located adjacent to the church. The small doorway/hallway you walk through opens to the beautiful old courtyard you see in the photos. Built on the ruins of a 7th-century monastery, the cloister blends 14th-century style with the following period styles, incorporating ruins from pagan temples and other archaeological sites. There’s also a paid photo gallery upstairs that usually features local artists.

Wow! What an amazing find! The grounds are very nice. The art exhibit on the second floor was amazing! A local photographer's (Raffaele Celentano) b&w photos are incredible, especially the Mother Theresa section. The views from the building are the best in the entire city! Also, the price of admission to the art exhibit was only 5€!
