San Domenico, Prato, Romanesque church in Prato, Italy
The San Domenico church displays a green and white marble facade on its first level, while the upper sections consist of undecorated brick construction.
The construction of San Domenico and its adjacent monastery started in 1282, with the bell tower addition in 1313 and final completion in 1325.
The interior houses numerous artistic treasures, including a 14th-century wooden crucifix and an Annunciation painting by Renaissance artist Matteo Rosselli.
The church maintains its religious functions while offering visitors access to view its architectural features and art collection throughout the day.
A lightning strike in 1647 led to extensive reconstruction, resulting in blocked Gothic windows and a transformation from medieval to 17th-century architectural style.
