Santa Maria a Lamole church

The church of Santa Maria a Lamole is located a short distance from the hamlet of Brucianesi, in the municipality of Lastra a Signa.

The first documents about it date back to the 13th century, but probably its origin is even more ancient.

The building is preceded by a portico, while the interior features a single nave with a trussed roof. On the walls are traces of 15th century frescos. On the side walls of the church are two frescos attributable to an artist who was influenced by the art movement related to Bicci di Lorenzo's studio, very active in the area; the frescos have currently been removed, waiting for a better setting.

In 1954 a new church was built, moving a part of the heritage found in this building, that is now in a state of neglect.
