Sant`Angelo a Fasanella Italy - Chapel of San Vito. Country chapel built with sharp-edged pebbles, detached and transported down by the Fasanella stream. Example of Rural Architecture, with a simple and regular geometry that allowed it to travel in time and to resist, in terms of shape rather than mechanical capacity, the earth tremors that it also endured. It has the simple and essential characteristics of the people of southern Italy. It offers shelter from the intense southern light on hot summer days, or in rainy autumn days when thunderstorms catch people at work in the countryside. Shelter for the spirit that needs to find itself in the silence broken only by the song of cicadas. We Are Italy.
