Pieve di San Lorenzo, Romanesque church in Borgo San Lorenzo, Italy.

The Pieve di San Lorenzo stands as the largest Romanesque structure in Florence's countryside, featuring three naves divided by columns with classical capitals.

The church's documented existence traces back to 941, with substantial reconstruction occurring in the 12th century, incorporating elements from earlier medieval buildings.

The interior contains numerous Tuscan artworks spanning from the 14th to 20th centuries, including the Madonna with Child by Niccolò di Pietro Gerini.

Visitors can attend services or explore the church Monday through Friday from 7:00 to 12:00 and 16:00 to 19:30, with modified hours on weekends.

The church's hexagonal brick bell tower, constructed in 1263, rises directly above the apse, creating an architectural configuration rarely found in religious buildings.
