In the dialect of our region, in fact, the term <strong>\"Chapel\"<\/strong> it is used to indicate a private place of worship, whether rural or urban.<\/p>\n<p>The beating heart of our farmhouse is the small internal chapel, <strong>built in 1825<\/strong> and still consecrated. This architectural gem, crafted from elegant <strong>Neoclassical style<\/strong>, This testifies to the importance that spirituality and community life held for ancient farming families. During that period, the countryside around Martina Franca was experiencing a season of great splendour: the masserie were no longer simple production centres or defensive structures, but were evolving into true social microcosms and sought-after manor houses with monumental facades.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"bde-column-1936-111 bde-column\">\n  \n  \n\t\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"bde-columns-1936-142 bde-columns\"><div class=\"bde-column-1936-143 bde-column\">\n  \n  \n\t\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><div class=\"bde-column-1936-144 bde-column\">\n  \n  \n\t\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"bde-heading-1936-113 bde-heading\">\nA Family Legacy and Passion\n<\/h3><div class=\"bde-text-1936-114 bde-text\">\nAt the heart of Masseria Cappella beats a family spirit.
