Caffè da Stefano: what to see nearby

At the end of the street opens Porta Boncompagni, also called Porta Boncompagna, whose name recalls the nephew of Pope Gregory XIII who was castellan of Camerino. Of its old defensive role the guardhouse remains, while the northwest-facing facade was rebuilt between the 17th and 18th centuries. In November 2024 the design of its restoration began, after damage from the 2016 earthquake.

Just outside the gate stands the church of the Madonna delle Carceri, with a central plan designed by Ottaviano Mascherino. It was commissioned by Bishop Gerolamo Bovio after the healing of a lame man, which took place in 1581 in front of an image of the Virgin; inside is a detached 15th-century fresco of the Madonna and Child.
