Santo Stefano degli Agostiniani, Gothic church in Empoli, Italy.
The church features a long flank with two doors facing Via dei Neri, four chapels on the left, five on the right, and three apsidal chapels.
The Augustinian friars established the church in 1367, and under Prior Michele da Empoli from 1390 to 1432, the construction gained momentum.
In 1424, Masolino da Panicale painted frescoes depicting the Cycle of Stories of the True Cross in the Chapel of Saint Helena.
The church opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10 AM to 6 PM, with admission included in the ticket for the Collegiate Museum of Sant'Andrea.
The first chapel on the left contains one of the earliest images of Empoli, depicting Saint Nicholas of Tolentino protecting the city from plague.
