Pieve of San Pancrazio, Romanesque church in San Pancrazio, San Casciano in Val di Pesa, Italy.

The Pieve of San Pancrazio features multiple apses in Lombard-Romanesque style, with a central nave divided by two aisles and elevated galleries for women.

Built in 901, the Pieve of San Pancrazio stands on a hill between Pesa and Virginio streams, marking over one thousand years of religious presence.

The church houses significant artworks including a Madonna with Child from the school of Agnolo Gaddi and a Crucifixion by Santi di Tito from 1590.

Located 15 kilometers southwest of Florence, visitors can access the church while exploring the Chianti region's wine routes and medieval structures.

The studiolo contains frescoes depicting liberal arts themes and portraits of classical poets and scientists, created by Cosimo Gheri, Santi di Tito's student.
