ORATORIO DI SAN MAURO DI SOPRA DEDICATO ALLA “BEATA VERGINE DEL ROSARIO”

The oratory is dedicated to the Virgin of the Rosary. It was built on an existing capital formed by two columns with weathered roofing and closed by a door.

Family Galasso wanted it to be built to remember the two sons killed during the First World War. It is in medieval style; you can admire a peculiar celtic cross on the ridge of the façade.

It has been renovated a few times, it has a single nave with an altar on which you can admire a round niche where sits a wooden Madonna with little Jesus on the throne of the 17th century.

The sculpture comes from the Carnia area and its style and form recalls the wooden works of Domenico da Tolmezzo’s workshop.

It was built again at the beginning of the 20th century on a preexistent votive chapel.
