  Chapel of Sant Agata
by filipdebont
 
 

If you are visiting the San Paolo a Ripa d'Arno, do not forget to walk around the church, in order to see the Chapel of Saint Agatha.

This small chapel dates from the 11th century (1063) and was built by the monks of the Church of San Paolo a Ripa d'Arno.
This octagonal chapel is made of bricks, and it seems that this original shape comes from Islamic influences. Inside are kept remains of mural decorations from the 12th century. Unfortunately this chapel was not open.

Review Helpfulness: 4.5 out of 5 stars
