10 Most Amazing Chapels Around Europe

Originally, chapels were built as places of worship attached to private residences. Today, world-famous chapels like the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City, Sainte-Chapelle in Paris, and the Sassetti Chapel in Florence, have turned into must-see tourist attractions. However, there are many chapels found in Europe that remain largely unknown. These chapels are found in the foothills of the Italian Alps and along the shores of the Greek islands. Here are 10 lovely chapels you must see:
