Tips

It is a joyful chapel of moderate size, in a classic style surrounded by tall trees that almost hide it and seem to want to protect it from the wind and the fury of storms.
It is located in a beautiful amphitheater of which the highest tiers are formed by beautiful and sloping rows.
Everyone calls it the Oriolo Chapel but in the oldest documents it is called "Sacellum Beatae Virginis ad revolum", that is, the chapel of the Blessed Virgin near a stream. In the same documents it is also called: "Chapel of the Blessed Virgin of rest" a title that is very suitable for the human condition of all times.
His own story? It originates in the depth of time and its construction stability is like that of human health ... stability and precariousness alternate: it is almost a continuous research that has been carried out over the centuries since 1712, the year in which it was rebuilt up to the present day to anchor it to its site a construction that would like to take flight over the green and beautiful valley that opens up in front of it.

Surrounded by beautiful colored benches to rest, especially if you are walking the Path of the Wolf, this chapel dedicated to the Blessed Virgin is located in a quiet place of peace among vineyards
