Description

The chapel dedicated to Saints Rocco and Sebastiano was built in 1721 to a design by the engineer Carlo Antonio Castelli who created a building clearly inspired by Guarini.

The plant with linked spatial cells recalls that of San Lorenzo in Turin.

The chapel was the seat of the "Confraternity devoted to saints Rocco and Sebastiano" which was created after the great plague of 1630.
