Chapel

This small chapel was obtained from a room in the palace in 1913, as confirmed by the date shown next to the name of the decorator, Iohannes Bragantini. The Eucharistic liturgy could be celebrated here daily, except for the solemn festivities of Easter and Christmas.
The altar, built in the late 18th century, was adapted to the room. The small altarpiece, by Agostino Ugolini (1756-1824), signed and dated 1795, is dedicated to the Immaculate Virgin, who, in glory with the Child, crushes the dragon. At the bottom, in prayer, are Saints Luigi Gonzaga and Francesco di Sales: two saints that belonged to nobility but chose to live Christ's message. The terrestrial globe and the crown in the foreground symbolise the earthly power the two Saints gave up.
