Lonely Planet review for Largo San Giovanni Maggiore

Dominating the western flank of this fetching little square is Giovanni da Nola's impressive 16th-century Palazzo Giusso, home to the Istituto Universitario Orientale. Facing this is the Chiesa San Giovanni Pappacoda, whose original 15th-century structure barely survived the attentions of an 18th-century makeover. Antonio Baboccio's Gothic portal remains, along with a bell tower constructed out of tufa, marble and piperno stone.
