Convento di Giaccherino, Franciscan convent and events venue in Pistoia, Italy

The convent stands on a hill overlooking the plains from Serravalle to Florence, featuring two cloisters, various halls, and gardens with Lebanese cedars.

Gabriello Panciatichi established the convent in 1414 for Franciscan friars known as 'del Crocifisso' to atone for his money lending practices.

The convent houses numerous art pieces, including frescoed lunettes in the cloisters painted by Alessio Gemignani and Francesco di Alessandro Leoncini.

The venue offers multiple spaces for weddings, corporate meetings, conferences, and cultural events, with equipped rooms for workshops and press conferences.

In January 2024, the historic building experienced a floor collapse during an event, resulting in approximately 30 people being injured.
