San Niccolò, Romanesque church in Casole d'Elsa, Italy

The church features a structure with five naves separated by rounded arches resting on columns, and two semicircular apses with mullioned windows.

First documented in 1348, the church received a donation of 10 soldi from Guazzolino del Gorda for the creation of frescoes.

The interior houses a 14th-century Madonna painting attributed to the Sienese School, positioned at the main altar of the church.

The church maintains its original Romanesque structure despite modifications, including a modern portico addition and 17th-century interior decorations.

The interior layout resulted from reassembling the crypt of Casole's Collegiate church, which underwent Gothic transformation in the 13th century.
