Family chapel in Gioi built around 1600 as a private oratory, now awaiting restoration.

In the territory of Gioi, a medieval village in inland Cilento, the chapel of the Madonna della Grazia was built around 1600 as a private oratory for a local family. It is a small testimony to the Marian devotion that dots the Cilento countryside and villages.The roof has been restored, while the interior still awaits restoration and the chapel is not currently used for worship. We suggest admiring it from outside during a stroll around the village, known for its soppressata. We like discovering these small buildings, which tell the story of local families and faith in Cilento.
