Pieve di San Lorenzo, Romanesque church in Montiglio Monferrato, Italy
The Pieve di San Lorenzo features three naves divided by monolithic columns with capitals displaying biblical and floral carved motifs throughout the structure.
Construction of the church began in 1152 during a period of famine, as documented by an inscription found on one of the interior capitals.
The church houses a collection of medieval artworks created by Lombard artisans, representing religious scenes and decorative patterns from the 12th century.
The elevated presbytery section of the church creates additional interior volume, allowing natural light to illuminate the architectural details.
The hexagonal brick bell tower stands directly above the church apse, distributing its weight through the structural arch beneath.
