Cappella di Santa Maria di Momentana, Medieval chapel in Monterchi, Italy

The Cappella di Santa Maria di Momentana stands near the cemetery of Monterchi, featuring architectural elements typical of 13th-century religious structures in Tuscany.

The chapel underwent substantial modifications in 1785 when it was converted into a cemetery chapel, reducing its original dimensions and altering its layout.

The chapel gained recognition as the original location of Piero della Francesca's Madonna del Parto fresco, painted around 1455 for its main altar.

The religious structure maintains regular opening hours for visitors who can reach it through the marked pathways leading from Monterchi's town center.

The chapel sits on an elevated position that connects it visually with other medieval religious buildings across the Tiber Valley landscape.
