Chapelle San Sebastianu

This chapel was built in 1670 following an agreement between the "Common Fathers" and the master mason, Gio Bernardo. It was restructured in 1860, with materials from the facade of the parish church that were retrieved and carried by the villagers.
In this chapel, there is a painting representing Saint Lucy and Saint Sebastian at the foot of Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows, the work of the painter Luigi Brunetti, originally from Urbino, whose activity is attested in Corsica from 1843 to 1851. He married in Belgodère. A procession and a celebration of the saint were organised in the past every 20th January by the population and the confreres of the Brotherhood of the Holy Cross. It houses an altarpiece in fairly good condition and a 19th century painting by Brunetti, an Italian painter, representing the Saint. Although it has been desecrated, this chapel is still the object of special veneration during the eponymous festivals.
