San Lorenzo in Doliolo

The church features a nave with a pointed Romanesque portal entrance, leading to a stone bell tower with brick mullioned windows.

Founded in the 8th or 9th century as a Benedictine monastery outside the castle walls, the church underwent expansions in the 11th and 12th centuries.

The crypt houses 14th-century frescoes created by Lorenzo and Jacopo Salimbeni, depicting religious scenes and narratives from Christian tradition.

Located at Via Salimbeni 71 in San Severino Marche, the church maintains its regular schedule of religious services and welcomes visitors.

The name Doliolo comes from the practice of monks distributing small containers called doliola during religious ceremonies in medieval times.
