Sonnenaufgang bei der Chapel of the Madonna di Vitaleta

The Chapel of the Madonna di Vitaleta (Chapel Of Lady Vitaleta) is located in the hills of the Val d’Orcia on the road between San Quirico d’Orcia and Pienza. It is one of the most beautiful and photographed locations in this incredible Tuscany landscape, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The small chapel, framed by two rows of cypress trees was built in the spot where legend says the Virgin Mary appeared to a shepherdess. In 1533, a statue of the Virgin Mary by Andrea della Robbia was installed in the church, today conserved in the Church of Madonna di Vitaleta in San Quirico.
