San Paolo a Ripa d'Arno, Romanesque church in Pisa, Italy.

San Paolo a Ripa d'Arno features a marble facade with blind arches, three tiers of loggias, and granite columns from Elba dividing the interior into three aisles.

Founded in 901 AD, the church underwent modifications in the 11th and 12th centuries before Pope Eugene III reconsecrated it in 1148.

The interior contains a 13th-century crucifix, medieval frescoes by Buffalmacco, and a 14th-century Madonna with Saints by Turino Vanni.

Located along the Arno River banks, the church stands near a garden with a children's playground and a water fountain across Lungarno Sonnino.

A 2nd-century Roman sarcophagus inside the church influenced the artistic works of medieval sculptors Nicola Pisano and Arnolfo di Cambio.
