Located on the outskirts of Moschiano in the Capomoschiano district on the road that leads to Forino, it is a relatively small chapel, rectangular in shape, with an area of about 20 square meters of very ancient origins (in fact, it is mentioned already in the pastoral visits of Bishop Lancelotti in 1632 as witnessed in the acts of the Episcopal Curia of Nola) it is private property belonging to the heirs of Cava Michele who left it as an inheritance to his four daughters Gaetana, Maria, Domenica and Rosa and who in turn left it as an inheritance to the Caliendo, Mascolo, Venezia and Paolillo families. Until the early 1980s, the small church was opened to the public only on a few occasions. Severely damaged by the 1980 earthquake, it was restored. Inside there was the Statue of Sant'Eligio (SKU 2400057) which however after the earthquake was removed, restored and preserved separately.
