San Lorenzo Collegiate Church, Collegiate church in Montevarchi, Italy.

The San Lorenzo Collegiate Church features a slender bell tower with a statue of Saint Lawrence and contains numerous Baroque architectural elements throughout its structure.

Construction began in 1327, with the main altar completed in 1360, followed by extensive renovations in the early 18th century under architect Massimiliano Soldani Benzi.

The church museum displays religious art treasures, including panels by Andrea della Robbia and a stone relief portrait of Pope Leo X from 1550.

The church maintains regular visiting hours and houses a sacred art museum containing medieval and Renaissance religious artifacts from the region.

The church preserves a relic known as the Sacro Latte, reportedly donated by Count Guido Guerra VI in 1266 after receiving it from Charles I of Naples.
