Cappella della Pia Congregazione dei Banchieri e dei Mercanti

Via Garibaldi, 25, Turin, Italy

 

This is a classic example of baroque style from the end of the 17th century. The name derives from the Congregation of Bankers and Merchants which was formed a few years before the chapel was built. Made up of a large, rectangular room which is rather magnificent, the vault is decorated with remarkable frescoes. In the adjacent rooms to the chapel is an interesting, mechanichal calendar which goes from the year 1 to the year 4000 A.D.
