About Chapel Vitaleta

Chapel Vitaleta sits on a working Tuscan estate in the Val d'Orcia, where rolling hills of wheat and cypress punctuate the horizon.

The 14th-century chapel commands views across the countryside, with ceremony space that opens directly onto manicured grounds and vineyard rows beyond.

A 180-person indoor capacity ensures celebrations proceed regardless of weather, anchored by on-site Catholic and civil ceremony options.
