A mystic, austere and scenic Church for a countryside Chianti wedding; a wonderful choice for Roman Catholic couples.
Getting married in Tuscany in this impressive Pieve only available for a Catholic wedding. A Catholic wedding in Italy can be organized in many Churches and Tuscany offers plenty of countryside Churches and Chapels.
This impressive Pieve is located in the Chianti hills near the river Elsa, along the so-called Via Francigena, an ancient road that in Medieval times led pilgrims from all over Europe to Rome. The same road that was traveled by the Archbishop of Canterbury around 990AD in his return from Rome. And the first testimony of the Church is indeed the documents describing that journey! The Church despite the renovations and expansions that have been subject over the centuries, retains a great late-romantic architectural interest with a plant with three naves separated by six arches supported by columns for each part. A mystic atmosphere and a scenic setting are the main reason why this Church is among the most beloved for a Catholic wedding in Tuscany.
