San Marco, Catholic church in Cortona, Italy

The San Marco church features two facades, with the main entrance from the 16th century displaying a Baroque portal and a 15th-century frame.

The building replaced a former pilgrim hospital, and in 1580 became the headquarters of the Lay Company of the Holy Trinity with two superimposed halls.

The lower oratory contains a mosaic depicting Saint Mark, created by artist Gino Severini in 1961, integrating with the surrounding landscape.

The church maintains regular opening hours for visitors who can access both the upper church and lower oratory through separate entrances.

The church houses Pietro Lorenzetti's large Crucifix, which has been transferred to the Diocesan Museum for preservation and display.
