In the facade of the chapel, above the entrance, you can see a saint depicted with a pig. That is Saint Anthony, who is often represented with a pig. The Antonites, members of the nursing order named after him, were allowed in the Middle Ages to let their pigs roam freely as compensation for the care they provided. Traditionally, on January 17, these pigs were slaughtered and the meat distributed among the poor.
