Chiesa di Sant'Agostino
Siena, IT
The church of Sant'Agostino was built with an adjoining convent from 1258. Construction continued for more than fifty years, with extensions and remodelling over the centuries, especially during the 15th century, between 1450 and 1490. After a disastrous fire in 1747, it required a complete renovation, which was supervised by Luigi Vanvitelli, from 17 July 1747 to 1755. At the beginning of the 19th century, with the Napoleonic suppression of religious orders, the Augustinians left the convent.
