Santa Maria Sopra Porta, Romanesque church near Piazza di Parte Guelfa, Florence, Italy
The stone church features a robust architectural design with simple forms and traditional Romanesque elements on Via Pellicceria in central Florence.
Founded in 1038, Santa Maria Sopra Porta endured significant fires in 1304 and 1706, which destroyed numerous interior artistic elements.
The structure transformed from a Roman Catholic place of worship to become the library of the Palazzo di Parte Guelfa.
The church stands at coordinates 43°46'10.96"N and 11°15'13.39"E, providing access to historical documents and literary resources.
