Built in 1750, on the farm of same name, it was later purchased by the municipality in order to turn it into the City Cemetery. The building is made of stone and lime, with very thin walls. The high altar has well-crafted Baroque plaster decorations, with acanthus leaves and cherubs. The image of St. Peter is topped by keys, this Saint’s symbol. In the tiny sacristy, there is a small marble toilet. The chapel was reformed several times and it was restored by the Institute of National Historical and Artistic Heritage in 1972
