Cappella del SS. Sacramento, Religious chapel in Gesualdo, Italy
The Cappella del SS. Sacramento is a chapel in Gesualdo featuring vaulted ceilings decorated with frescoes from the 1660s. Marble surfaces and gilded stucco work cover the walls and vault, creating an ornate interior.
The chapel was built between 1663 and 1666 to the design of architect Giacomo Giorgetti. He created both its architectural structure and the stucco decorations covering the vault.
The chapel displays painted scenes depicting biblical stories of divine grace and salvation. These images reflected the religious devotion of those who gathered here to pray.
You can reach the chapel through Gesualdo Cathedral, where it functions as a side chapel. Natural light from tall windows helps you see the painted surfaces and decorative details clearly.
The marble altar holds a Last Supper painting from 1720 that features an unusual arrangement. God the Father appears floating above the meal, looking down at the apostles below.
