Santa Caterina delle Ruote
Santa Caterina delle Ruote, Gothic church in Ponte a Ema, Italy.
The Oratory of Santa Caterina delle Ruote exhibits Gothic architectural elements with a symmetrical design near Florence in the Tuscan countryside.
The Alberti family established this religious structure in 1348, during a period of substantial architectural development throughout the Florence region.
The interior walls display detailed frescoes depicting Saint Catherine of Alexandria's life, created by artists Maestro di Barberino and Pietro Nelli.
The religious building maintains wheelchair accessibility features and recorded 885 visitors in 2021, marking a decrease from previous years.
Spinello Aretino, a major figure in 14th-century Tuscan painting, contributed significantly to the fresco cycle that decorates the oratory walls.
