San Quirico in Monte San Quirico

San Quirico in Monte San Quirico, Church building in Monte San Quirico, Lucca, Italy.

San Quirico is a church on the right bank of the Serchio River in Monte San Quirico, built with neoclassical elements. The building displays a simple facade with traditional religious features characteristic of rural places in this region.

San Quirico is documented from the 8th century, when its founder gave the Bishop of Lucca properties; a charter of 788 records that the bishop and his clergy went in procession to the church on the feast of San Quirico, 16 July. Listed in the 1260 catalogue among Lucca's suburban churches as a monastery, it was aggregated on 13 April 1443 to the collegiate church of San Michele in Piazza.

The name Monte San Quirico comes from Saint Quiricus, whose feast on 16 July was when the Bishop of Lucca and his clergy walked here in procession, as a document of 788 records. The church was long attached to a Benedictine monastery of the Casadeian Congregation.

The church is located at Via della Chiesa 384 in Monte San Quirico and is easy to reach from the village. Visitors should note that the building continues to serve as a parish church and may not be freely accessible during service times.

Inside is a painted terracotta statue of Saint Sebastian by Matteo Civitali, identified as the work mentioned in his 1492 testament and left unfinished, then completed by his workshop. It stayed unpainted for long; restorations uncovered only part of the 17th-century colouring, now almost entirely covered by that of the early 1900s.
