Business card (vCard)
The parish of Saint Innocenza in Piana is a sacred building near Buonconvento. Mentioned since 1081, it is a fortified structure which still keeps the characteristic elements of the military sienese architecture of the XIII-XIV century; one of its sides is the church, which has been made in fired-brick, like most part of the complex, but with stone-lines in the simple front. It has only a nave with trusses in sight, but it already shows gothic elements in a quadrilateral chapel which ends it, covered with a barrel vault and pointed-arch monophores. On the inside there are traces of a fourteenth-century fresco with Saint Christopher and another fresco, always fragmentary, where there is again the figure of the Blessed Franco da Grotti.
