Cappella d'Oro, Renaissance chapel in Gaeta, Italy.
The Cappella dell'Immacolata Concezione features a barrel vault ceiling decorated with gold leaf and contains numerous religious paintings on its walls.
Constructed in 1321, the chapel received its elaborate wooden interior decorations and pictorial cycle by Giovanni Filippo Criscuolo during the first half of the 16th century.
The walls display an extensive collection of biblical narratives, including scenes from the lives of Jesus and Mary painted between 1513 and 1515.
Located on Via dell'Annunziata in Gaeta's historic center, the chapel welcomes visitors daily from 09:30 to 12:00 and 16:00 to 20:00.
Pope Pius IX regularly prayed in this chapel during his exile in Gaeta, where he developed the concept for the Dogma of the Immaculate Conception.
