San Rabano, Romanesque abbey ruins in Maremma Natural Park, Grosseto, Italy

The San Rabano abbey features a single nave with three apses, circular tower, and high walls decorated with medieval Templar crosses at 320 meters altitude.

Founded between the 11th and 12th centuries as a Benedictine monastery, the complex was transferred to the Knights of Jerusalem in 1307 for fortification purposes.

The architectural elements of San Rabano display medieval religious craftsmanship through its stone arches, squared bell tower, and monumental entrance portal.

The restoration work completed in the early 2000s allows visitors to examine the remaining structures within the natural reserve of Maremma.

The abbey combines religious architecture with military elements, as evidenced by the battlements and defensive walls added during the late medieval period.
