San Pietro, Benedictine abbey in Firenzuola, Italy
The San Pietro complex retains medieval traces, including a thirteenth-century entrance gate with pointed arch and toothed wedges at the monastery entrance.
Founded in 1034 by Giovanni Gualberto, with local sources attributing construction to Beato Rodolfo dei Galigai during the expansion of monasticism in Tuscany.
The former monastery houses the Museum of Historical Landscape of the Apennines, part of the Mugello Alto Mugello Val di Sieve museum system.
The geographical coordinates 44°04′28.42″N 11°25′29.39″E enable visitors to locate this religious structure in the Tuscan countryside.
According to local tradition, a flood destroyed the church after Saint Giovanni Gualberto expressed dissatisfaction with the monastery's excessive dimensions.
