Chiesa di Sant'Agostino, Medieval church in Trescene district, Benevento, Italy.
The Sant'Agostino church features a single nave with a rectangular apse and a polychrome main altar displaying a painting of Saint Augustine washing Christ's feet.
The church and its connected monastery were constructed around 1300 on the site of a previous temple dedicated to the goddess Isis in Benevento.
The religious complex housed numerous Beneventan monks who excelled in sciences and letters, including theologian Deodato and philosophy professor Agostino Lepore.
The structure currently serves as part of the University of Sannio, following its transformation from its original religious function after closure in 1865.
Four additional churches operated under this monastery's authority: Sant'Andrea da Palofernis, San Matteo near Porta Aurea, Santa Maria, and Sant'Eustacchio.
