Chiesetta dei Boschi (visited 07/2015)

[Andy]

A short stop; visited with Miaro Digital on our this year's Italy-tour.

Built between the 17th and 18th centuries, the small Italian church was seat of a parish in the mid-19th century.

Since 1960 it has been hardly used. In the early 1980s, a wedding was performed here the last time, in 1990 the church was already documented as "neglected".

A lovely little Church there Andy.

I like the look of the place and you have captured it well.

I have read about before and just looked at again.

Its a shame they white washed over the frescoes which decorated the walls.

Plus was the victim of theft of the carved wooden floor and ornate doors which is always sad but the way of the world.

Good to see and thanks for sharing
