The San Giovanni Battista parish

In the main square, Piazza Giotto, we find the 14th century St. Giovanni Battista Parish Church in the shape of a Latin cross headed by a Renaissance style colonnade. It holds interesting paintings: a Maestà and Saints John the Baptist and Sebastiano by Florentine School, dated 1533, -at the moment under investigation-, and Madonna of the Rosary by Alessandro Fei. Tel. +39 055 844167

Closed to Piazza Giotto, in Corso del Popolo, we find the Oratorio San Filippo Neri, which holds a 15th century glazed terracotta, “Madonna and Child”, attributed to Della Robbia’s workshop and a wax statue of the “Dead Christ” by Clemente Susini (1798). Tel. +39 055 8449980

In the near vicinity, along a tree lined lane that leads back to Borgo San Lorenzo, we find the Sacred Art and Popular Religiousness Museum

Once on the Traversa del Mugello, on the way to Borgo San Lorenzo, past the town of Vespignano, we find the home of Giotto, and the 13th century San Martino Church. Tel. +39 055 844167

At the foot of Monte Giovi we find Sant’Andrea Church where Don Milani was the parish priest and founded the school and his famous teaching methods. Don Milani’s tomb lies in the little cemetery in front of the church in Barbiana. Booking requested for opening. For visiting the church: Tel. Vicchio Church, +39 055 844167
