The Capella de casa Rossell is a small baroque sacral building within the development of the Rossell House in the parish of Ordino in the Principality of Andorra .

It is a house chapel with a rectangular floor plan, with a wooden core, a wall bell tower and an adjoining room for the sacristy. After obtaining the bishop's permission, construction began in 1779 and consecrated in 1780. In 2001 and 2002 the church was extensively restored by the Área de Inventario y Conservación . In July 2003 it was declared a cultural asset.

The main facade is oriented to the southwest and points to the entrance gate of the house, where the entrance door, an opulum and a small niche above the entrance gate are located. The facade was left in exposed stone, while the south-eastern wall was plastered.

Inside there is an altar dedicated to Nuestra Señora de la Purísima Concepción. Other original furniture is kept in the sacristy.
