Didžiokų koplyčia, Chapel in Didžiokai, Lithuania

The rotunda-style chapel features a single floor with a dome and basement mausoleum, exhibiting neoclassical architectural elements throughout its structure.

Count Kostas Jelenskis constructed this chapel-mausoleum at the end of the 19th century as part of an estate that included gardens with specially shaped trees.

The chapel transformed from a burial site to an art space where sculptor Aloyzas Smilingis established workshops and students created stone sculptures.

Located at coordinates 55.121849, 25.354934 in the Molėtai district, the chapel stands near road 172 connecting Raudondvaris, Giedraičiai, and Molėtai.

After its return to Mykolas Devenis's daughter in 1998, the chapel became a cultural center managed by the Molėtai photo club Ekspozicija.
