Parish Church Pieve di Santa Maria

The Pieve di Santa Maria features a three-section facade with polished verrucana stone walls and contains three portals topped by decorative arches.

Constructed between the 11th and 12th centuries, the church stands on the foundation of an earlier religious structure first documented in 934.

The interior walls display fresco cycles from the late 13th century that illustrate narratives from the lives of the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ.

The church maintains regular Catholic services and stands at Via Moricotti 2 in Vicopisano, marked by its 1775 bell tower at the rear.

The main altar contains a wooden Deposition from the Cross sculpture from the early 13th century, representing a rare example in Tuscan religious art.
