Church of San Giuliano a Gavorrano

The Church of San Giuliano in Gavorrano is a church dating back to the 12th century and a building that bears witness to the great artistic and architectural vivacity of this territory over time.
In fact, although its origin is medieval, the present-day building is the result of renovation that took place at the end of the 18th century: during this restoration, the imposing walls of the surrounding fortress were integrated into the church’s buildings, thus uniting the spirituality of the place with the defensive history of the village of Gavorrano.

Elegant pillars divide the space inside the church into three naves - each enriched by the presence of side altars richly decorated with stucco and plaster - which bear witness to the art and the devotion of the worshippers over the centuries.

The church’s façade, with its tripartite structure and small arches crowning it, is the result of major restoration work that took place in 1927, as indicated by the engraving on the architrave itself. This restoration has not only preserved the external appearance of the building, but has also helped to enhance its architectural beauty, making it a point of reference for lovers of local history.
