Cappella del SS. Sacramento, Religious chapel in Gesualdo, Italy

The Cappella del SS. Sacramento features high vaulted ceilings adorned with frescoes depicting biblical scenes and ornate marble decorations throughout its interior space.

The chapel's construction occurred between 1663 and 1666 under architect Giacomo Giorgetti, who designed both the architectural elements and created stucco decorations on the vaults.

The chapel contains numerous biblical narrative panels illustrating stories of divine providence, including scenes of Elijah, David, and Abraham's religious experiences.

Visitors can observe the artistic elements of the chapel during regular cathedral opening hours, with natural light illuminating the frescoes through tall windows.

The chapel houses a marble altarpiece containing a Last Supper painting from 1720, displaying an uncommon composition with God the Father floating above the scene.
