Description
This little chapel, the Oratory of Saint Rocco, was tucked away in the corner of the small piazza near the castle of Riomaggiore. I was staying very close to here during my stay in Riomaggiore so I passed this several times every day. One day the door was open so I ducked in for a visit and found this lovely scene. The oratory was built in 1480 after a plague. Inside there is a triptych over the altar representing the Virgin with the Child and Saints Rocco and Sebastian.
