Pieve San Lorenzo

Parishes and Churches

He falls in the diocese of Luni. The architectural style is Romanesque in Lucca: it has a basilican plan, a semicircular apse in sandstone drafts of the Apennines and an octagonal bell tower. The influence of Lucca can also be found in a painting of the Holy Face, an icon venerated in the capital, which is located inside the church. This parish church, around which the town was built, has long been a point of passage between the Serchio and Aulella valleys as early as the 12th century, when travelers passed by to get to the Hospitale del Passo della Tea. In the Middle Ages these lands were known as being part of the “Plover of the Terre d’Oltre Giogo”
