Santo Stefano al Ponte, Romanesque church near Ponte Vecchio, Florence, Italy
The Santo Stefano al Ponte exhibits a marble facade with a two-tone decorated portal and round arches that define its Romanesque architectural style.
Built in the 11th century, the church transformed from a three-aisled structure to a single nave during renovations between 1649 and 1655 by architect Francesco Tacca.
The church served as a venue for Boccaccio's lectures on Dante's Divine Comedy in 1373, marking its role in Florence's literary traditions.
The church opens on Fridays from 3:30 PM to 6:30 PM in winter and 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM in summer, remaining closed during August.
The building now functions as a concert hall and houses a diocesan museum containing artworks, including a Madonna panel attributed to Giotto.
