San Jacopo sopr'Arno, Romanesque church in Oltrarno, Florence, Italy.
The church features a triple-arched portico entrance, eleven side chapels, and houses gilded stuccos throughout its three-nave interior layout.
The church structure originated in the 10th century, with major modifications in 1580 when Cosimo I de Medici requested architect Bernardino Radi to redesign the entrance.
The vault contains frescoes by Vincenzo Meucci, while the presbytery displays the San Jacopo Glory fresco created by Matteo Bonechi.
The church entrance is located on Borgo San Jacopo street and remains accessible during mass hours with no admission fee required.
The columns from the original Romanesque construction were discovered beneath the Baroque interior during restoration work after the 1966 flood.
