Cappella Rucellai
Via della Spada, Florence 50123 - Italy

Map
The small temple of San Sepolcro is at the centre of the 14th Century chapel which is annexed to the church of S. Pancrazio, the current home of the museum Marino Marini. Giovan Battista Aberti who was also commissioned to build the family palace designed it. The well-proportioned temple and its antique style make it one of the most important examples of Florentine Renaissance architecture. The work finished in 1467 is based on the size of the Santo Sepolcro in the Holy Land. Frescoes represent the Death and Resurrection of Christ.
