Chapel of Saint Bartholomew

Abstract

This small wooden chapel was built in 1929 and is dedicated to Saint Bartholomew, patron saint and protector against wolves and bears. It was a gathering place for shepherds, who celebrated the saint there every year on 24 August, asking for his protection and bringing offerings of products from the mountain pastures.
