The chapel of San Giuseppe is part of the hospital complex of the Spedali Riuniti (United Hospitals), built in the 1930s on a project of the architect Ghino Venturi.
The stained glass windows of the chapel are a work of Athos Rogero Natali, the elder brother of the well-known Livornese painter Renato Natali.

A beautiful sanctuary inside. It doesn't feel too over the top, though.
The inside of the sanctuary is just breathtaking.
It is beautiful inside and outside. The architect seems to have used a style that is respectful of the older buildings in Livorno.
Wow, that is breath-taking! We have small chapels in some of our hospitals here but nothing like this. The interior is very beautiful and I like the way the digital photography presents very cool colors. I also like the exterior - it has a strong symbolic presence.
Impressive hospital chapel. They don't build anything like it anymore...
Let's hope that being in the nice chapel will speed patients' recovery or help them or their families make peace with approaching death.
So beautiful!
Like that first one with the foreground walkway leading to the entrance.
The outside is very Spartan, the inside is breathtaking.
I love the stained glass windows and like the old word "spedali"!
That's a beautiful chapel. You wouldn't think it from the outside!
Hi VP. I meant to tell you that friends of ours who live across the street from us have a last name of Natale.
