The Oratorio di S Filippo Neri can be found near the Chiesa di S.Filippo Neri and can be accessed from either number 10 Via Lomellini or directly from the sacristy of the church. Constructed sometime between 1749 and 1755 as a place for quiet meditation, it was incorporated into the convent of the Padri Filippini. The ceiling is completely covered in golden stucco with a coloured background; both this and the frescoed apse are the work of J. A. Boni, with paintings by G. Diavolo. Not to be missed is the painting of St. Philip in ecstasy, by S. Dubois.
