Sant’Agostino, Gothic church in Montalcino, Italy.

The church of Sant'Agostino features a cusped portal with pinnacles and contains detailed frescoes depicting religious figures throughout its interior walls.

Established by the Augustinian order in 1227, the church underwent a major reconstruction in 1380 that defined its current Gothic architectural form.

The interior walls display 14th and 15th-century frescoes by Bartolo di Fredi illustrating the Passion of Christ and the Life of St Anthony Abbot.

The adjacent convent section now functions as a nursing home, while one of the cloisters has been modified with a glass roof installation.

Recent restoration efforts have involved collaboration between the archdiocese, regional authorities, and private foundations to preserve the church's medieval artworks.
