Chapel Nossadunna Immaculada, Cumbel

The key is deposited on the ledge at the entrance.

The Nossadunna Immaculada chapel is located on the western edge of the village. The first chapel was built around 1680 around 100 m southwest of the old mill. Its founder, Giachen Antoni da Chaheri, was a shepherd on the Seglias alp when he fell ill with appendicitis. He vowed to have a chapel built in the village when he recovered. The chapel was renovated in 1893 and was still owned by the founder's descendants at the time. However, after the chapel had become dilapidated, it was taken over by the parish. With the consent of the bishop, the old chapel was demolished in 1928 and the current building was erected between 1929 and 1930 and consecrated in 1931.

The chancel faces west, is recessed and closed flat. It is raised by one step and has a barrel ceiling above a simple surrounding stucco cornice. The mensa lies on the masonry altar block, supported by two lateral wooden pillars. The figure of St. Theresa stands on the left and St. Roch on the right on lateral pedestals. The altarpiece depicts Mary with the infant Jesus.The nave has a barrel ceiling above the cornice and two round-arched windows on the south side in the same design as the choir window. On the windowless right-hand wall of the chapel is an old altar piece from the former chapel. St. Roch, Mary with Child and St. Andrew are painted between two fluted columns against a light blue background. A hexagonal ridge turret is located above the choir on the gabled roof covered with sheet copper. Its walls and pointed spire are also covered with sheet copper. It has small semicircular sound windows, behind which the hand-pulled bell rings, suspended from wooden beams.
