From s. Bernardino, returning to Piossasco, along the road called La Viassa, a derogatory word to indicate that the road is always rather ugly and muddy, you reach the hamlet of Cappella. The name of the hamlet derives from the primitive chapel that probably already existed before the foundation of the hamlet. It was mentioned in the pastoral visitation of 1668. It seems that the chapel was closed by wooden gates and that the icon of the Madonna was painted on the wall. The annual feast was celebrated on the second day of May. In the pastoral visitation of 1775 it is said that the gates were already made of iron and that the chapel was dedicated to the Madonna delle Grazie. However, in a report of the vicar of S. Vito, Don Rossi, in 1812 it is said that the chapel is dedicated to the Madonna dei Fiori. This change of name occurred because in the meantime the Prarosto Chapel had been built, dedicated to the Madonna delle Grazie: it was not appropriate that in the same parish there were two chapels with the same title. In the chapel we continue to honor the Madonna under the beautiful title of “Madonna dei Fiori” (Mystical Rose), invoking her protection in the spring flowering, especially from frost. The current chapel was purchased with the donations of all the inhabitants of the hamlet. The chapel was built on the corner of a vineyard owned in 1895 by Mrs. Agata Giuliano ved. Goffi, who sold the vineyard to Mr. Pietro Difesa, but excluded the chapel, which she instead sold to Mrs. Giorgina Lana, née Picco, for the sum of 100 lire, with a notarial deed dated 14 November 1895. Her son Mr. Lana Vittorio, with a notarial deed dated 14 September. In 1924 it was sold and given to the community of inhabitants of the hamlet of Cappella (for which the parties Romano Edoardo, Andruette Giovanni, Pautasso Giuseppe, Bonetto Mattia, Zoppetto Lorenzo, Bertinetto Antonio and Gonella Michele accepted all the rights of ownership and dominion). and use is due to her as heir of her mother Picco Giorgina fu Vittorio ved. Lana Edoardo, above the aforementioned chapel. As a fee, an amount of 500 lire was agreed, which the factionalists explained as the result of ablations collected among the inhabitants of the fraction
