San Leonardo in Arcetri, Romanesque church in Arcetri district, Florence, Italy
The church features a facade made of rustic stone bricks with a round oculus in the tympanum and a hemicircular apse at the back.
Founded in 1001, San Leonardo in Arcetri underwent renovation in the late 19th century to remove baroque elements and restore its original Romanesque structure.
The interior contains a 13th-century pulpit from San Pier Scheraggio church, decorated with marble panels depicting biblical scenes through detailed bas-reliefs.
Located on Via di San Leonardo 25, southeast of Porta San Giorgio, the church stands among olive groves near the Villa Spelman research center.
The main altarpiece displays a 15th-century triptych by Lorenzo di Niccolò showing Madonna and Child with Saints Anthony Abbot, Leonard, James, and Lawrence.
