Abbey of San Pancrazio al Fango

Abbey of San Pancrazio al Fango, Medieval abbey ruins in Diaccia Botrona Nature Reserve, Italy

The remains of San Pancrazio al Fango Abbey include partially preserved walls, a semicircular apse base, and sections of a single-nave church with transept.

Founded between the 8th and 9th centuries on former Sant'Antimo Abbey land, the structure was later transferred to Sestinga Abbey in the late 12th century.

The abbey walls contain sandstone blocks arranged in regular rows, with travertine elements incorporated as decorative features throughout the structure.

The ruins stand between Grosseto and Castiglione della Pescaia municipalities, requiring advance planning for transportation due to their remote location.

Archaeological evidence reveals that the abbey was constructed over an ancient Roman villa, with artifacts from this period now displayed in regional museums.
