San Sebastiano al Vesuvio is a commune in the province of Naples, located on the western slopes of Mount Vesuvius. Its elevation means that it is often a few degrees cooler than the neighbouring metropolis of Naples.
It was destroyed in 1944 by the most recent eruption of Mount Vesuvius during the Allies' occupation of southern Italy.
