The structure is made up of verrucano drafts and sandstone blocks. The gabled fa\u00e7ade has the gable of the roof supported by shelves and a tympanum with a blind oculus in the center, while below it is delimited laterally by semi-pillars, enriched by hanging arches on sculpted corbels and centrally characterized by a portal with reused architrave, surmounted by two oculi, a blind arch, on which until June 1986 there was the coat of arms of the Bracci Cambini family, which had patronage over the parish church. The marble coat of arms, similar to the one that is still on the rectory, fell to the ground due to a ball thrown by two boys playing on the square in front of the church. The free southern wall highlights three different construction phases: a homogeneous portion with a molded cornice over hanging arches resting on shelves sculpted with animal, vegetable and wickerwork decorations; an upper part with two large rounded arches; the bell tower with a rectangular base. The latter, made with different qualities of stone at the end of the 12th or early 13th century, has a cell at the top with four arched openings crowned by hanging arches, all topped by a gable roof. The eastern fa\u00e7ade, characterized by the central semicircular apse and three narrow single-lancet windows with ogival arches, has the same decoration of the cornice, arches and shelves present on the south side. The northern flank delimits the annexed cemetery and appears incomplete. It has four arches on pillars and the setting of a fifth, abolished for the insertion of a column supporting a large round arch identical to those of the southern facade.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"tlid-translation translation\" lang=\"en\"> Interior<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"tlid-translation translation\" lang=\"en\"> The bare interior with a single wide nave presents on the left the buffered arches that separated it from the ancient small side nave. The infills still show traces of the pictorial decorations with fake drapery, probably made in the 1830s. The front is massive, continuous and characterized only by the presence of two stone inscriptions and a marble bust. Three large granite columns mark the most recent part of the church structure and act as a support for large arches. The presbytery area, bare and located on a level slightly higher than the nave, has in the center the high altar, coming from the church of San Michele alla Verruca, with medieval inscription along the edge, and in the left transept a minor altar, provided of tabernacle. Traces of frescoes and sculpted decorations are still visible on the walls. The last restoration, which took place in 1977, saw the creation of the terracotta floor with the fishbone motif characteristic of the original flooring. Some metal grates allow you to view the main archaeological finds made under the floor. Note the organ by Domenico Francesco Cacioli, from 1738, [1] with an extremely elegant fa\u00e7ade, restored by the organ builder Glauco Ghilardi in 1983 on commission from the Parish of Caprona and inaugurated by Msgr. Luigi Sessa; the instrument came from the church of the Compagnia di Calcinaia. The parish is often chosen for weddings.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wm_right_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wm_body_gallery\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/ecmedia.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com\/EcMedia\/76178.jpg\" data-lightbox=\"track-gallery\" data-title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ecmedia.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com\/EcMedia\/Resize\/400x200\/76178_400x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-pagination\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-button-prev\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-button-next\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wm_info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<script>\n\t\tdocument.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {\n\t\t\tvar swiper = new Swiper('.swiper-container', {\n\t\t\t\tslidesPerView: 1,\n\t\t\t\tspaceBetween: 10,\n\t\t\t\tfreeMode: true,\n\t\t\t\tloop: true,\n\t\t\t\tpagination: {\n\t\t\t\t\tel: '.swiper-pagination',\n\t\t\t\t\tclickable: true,\n\t\t\t\t},\n\t\t\t\tnavigation: {\n\t\t\t\t\tnextEl: '.swiper-button-next',\n\t\t\t\t\tprevEl: '.swiper-button-prev',\n\t\t\t\t},\n\t\t\t});\n\t\t});\n\t<\/script>\n\n\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-15449","poi","type-poi","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"geohub_poi_id":"43001"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
