In a small square not far from Corso Magenta in the elegant Castelletto area is the beautiful late 16th Century Chiesa di S.Anna, built for the Barefoot Carmelites. One side hides the row of buildings across the cobbled square, from where the Salita Bachernia (one of the most picturesque trails that run along the ridges between the old city and the hills behind) starts. The church houses interesting works by the artists F. Schiaffino, T. Orsolino and D. Fiasella. The convent was recently restored and still retains the furniture from the Friars Pharmacy and the old library.
