More information on Cappella di Piazza
Built as a votive offering at the end of the plague in 1348, in keeping with the faith of the time when medicine was scarce, this chapel has the appearance of an open loggia and it is decorated with statues. The two panels showing Arithmetic and Geometry are 19th- century copies as the originals were moved inside the building to preserve them from storms and fire.
