Chapel Tujetsch

Kapelle St. Luzius, Cavorgia

Kapelle in Cavorgia

Description

history: The earliest evidence of the existence of the chapel is the date of the small bell from 1609. It is mentioned in the visitation report 1643. On September 8, 1658, a new consecration took place in honor of St. Lucius and Carlo Borromeo, which had apparently been preceded by a reconstruction. specifications: The southwest-facing chapel has a retracted, two-sided choir closing in a spire, which opens to the nave in a lower and rather narrow choir arch and a narrow choir arch. It is reasonable to assume that the choir dates back to the reconstruction around 1658. The nave and choir arch are earlier, around 1600. Round-arched windows and pierced west entrance protected by a small wooden porch. On the roof sits an open roof rider with a pointed helmet. The high altar is a well-composed, gracefully moving structure with two diagonally protruding columns and a curly gable with rococo rat.  Bells: Mit Inschriften 1609.
