Cappella del Miracolo del Sacramento, Religious chapel in Sant'Ambrogio Church, Florence, Italy.
This chapel contains a marble tabernacle created by Mino da Fiesole and frescoes painted by Cosimo Rosselli between 1484 and 1486.
In 1230, priest Uguccione discovered blood drops in his chalice after mass, leading to the construction of this chapel to preserve the miraculous relic.
The walls display detailed frescoes depicting the Miracle of the Chalice, including a procession through Florence with angels and Church Doctors as witnesses.
The chapel stands elevated on steps to the left of the presbytery, enclosed by marble balustrades that guide visitors through the sacred space.
The silver-gilt reliquary from 1511 features a hexagonal base and angels at its summit, protecting the crystal vial containing the miraculous blood.
