View looking north northwest at the entrance to the chapel called "Duc in Altum." This is Latin for the words of Jesus addressed to Peter as recorded in Luke 5:4 where, after preaching from his boat, He tells him to "Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch."
After a large catch, the boat began to sink, and Peter and his partners left all behind to follow Jesus—to become "fishers of men" (5:10). The chapel is a call for present-day followers of Jesus to become "fishers of men."
