The chapel dates back to 1794 and is dedicated to Saint Francis Bianchi, born in Arpino on 2 December 1743 and known as "the Apostle of Naples".
St. Francis began as a university teacher and went to Naples where he began to abandon teaching and to devote himself to meditation and the care of the suffering.
Miracles are attributed to him as when he stopped the eruption of Vesuvius in 1804 and in 1805 with his blessing hand.
His image is found in hospitals next to the sick and his body rests in the church of Santa Maria di Caravaggio in Naples.
