Although the current building was rebuilt in 1852, the chapel's foundations date back to 1630.
The décor of this small building reflects the tastes and religious practices of the 19th century including a sculpted composition, over the tufa-arched entrance gate, recalling the cult of Our Lady of La Salette which commenced in 1846.
Although the elegant, understated interior only dates back to the 19th century we can still see the influence of Baroque architecture - an influence that extended way beyond this revolutionary period. It's a great opportunity to discover more about the knowhow and expertise of both historic artists and contemporary restorers who worked on the site..
