Chiesa di San Lorenzo al Ponte
The church of San Lorenzo al Ponte dates from the mid-13th century. It is Romanesque and consists of a single nave covered by a wooden truss roof, with a vaulted presbytery. From the beginning of the 14th century, it had a small portico on the left side, or perhaps a simple roof, to protect the fresco of the Virgin and Child from the weather. It was precisely because of the popular devotion to this sacred image that it was decided, at the beginning of the 15th century, to build or extend the portico over the whole side of the church, thus forming a real oratory next to it. Both the church and the portico were extensively frescoed at the beginning of the second decade of the 15th century by the Florentine painter Cenni di Francesco di ser Cenni.
