San Giusto al Pinone, Romanesque abbey in Carmignano, Italy.

The sandstone structure features a three-apse transept, a single nave with vaulted ceiling, and a separate bell tower near the main building.

Founded in 1125, the abbey provided shelter for travelers along a medieval route connecting northern and southern regions of the Italian peninsula.

The architectural elements, including the marble portal and bifora window, display influences from the Romanesque styles of Prato and Pistoia regions.

Access to the abbey requires following Via Vergheretana from Carmignano, continuing through Santa Cristina a Mezzana toward Montalbano until reaching Pinone.

A bell named Sperduta rang daily to guide lost travelers through the forest before nightfall, protecting them from wolves and bandits.
