Sant'Anna in Giolica, Medieval Catholic church in Prato, Italy

The church features a Renaissance porch entrance, a Latin cross layout, and a small dome at the intersection of the transepts with four circular windows.

Founded in 1269 by Brunetto de' Rossi, the church began as a hermitage and underwent substantial modifications in the early 1500s with architectural influences from Brunelleschi.

The interior walls display 14th-century frescoes depicting the Virgin Mary and Saint Catherine, along with altarpieces created by Pietro Santi Bambocci and Giovanni Stradano.

Located at Via Gabriele D'Annunzio 1 in Prato, the church maintains limited access and opens its doors to visitors once per year.

Between 1820 and 1824, the former convent section of the building served as an experimental facility for modern cotton and wool spinning machinery.
