Cappella di Sant'Agata, Romanesque chapel near San Paolo a Ripa d'Arno, Pisa, Italy.
The octagonal brick structure features triple mullioned windows with marble columns, decorative arches, and a pointed roof that rises above the surrounding area.
First documented in 1132, the chapel was built by Vallombrosan monks and later transferred to Benedictine sisters from the adjacent convent in the 16th century.
The chapel holds religious significance through its dedication to Saint Agatha, with her relics previously displayed during special celebrations attracting nursing mothers.
The religious building stands near Piazza San Paolo a Ripa d'Arno 9, accessible through a door in its western wall facing the main church.
The walls display progressive height variations from east to west, indicating structural modifications throughout its existence.
