Pieve di San Cresci in Valcava, Medieval church in Borgo San Lorenzo, Italy.
The Pieve di San Cresci in Valcava features three naves, six windows, and stone block construction with an octagonal baptismal font in its interior layout.
Founded in the 6th century on the site of a former pagan temple, the church underwent substantial renovations between 1700 and 1702, receiving consecration in 1703.
The church displays frescoes depicting Saint Crescius martyrdom by Ademollo and houses a painting of Madonna with Child in the style of Gaddi.
The church maintains regular opening hours for visitors and contains marble urns holding the remains of martyrs Enzo, Omnione, and Panfila in its side altars.
Giovanni Boccaccio mentioned this church in the seventh novel of the second day of his Decameron, incorporating it into an ironic narrative context.
