History

La Cappella Madonna della Grazia was the private family chapel for the Salati family of Gioi, Italy. [1] [2] [3] The chapel was built about 1600, and during renovations it was discovered that the original owners were the De Marco family, also of Gioi. [3] The chapel fell into disuse in the 1800s and now is owned by the government of Italy. [3] The roof has been restored, but the interior requires substantial renovation. [3]
