Church of Sant'Agostino
The monastery church of Sant'Agostino rises up on top of a hill covered with olive trees, just south of the hill of Corciano.
The oldest document which testifies the existence of the complex, seat of the Hermits of Sant'Agostino, is from 1334. In 1811, Napoleon tried to suppress the convent, but the sudden return of papal rule ensured the recovery of the structure, later definitively abolished in 1860.
Despite having undergone several transformations, the church, externally, still shows its fourteenth century lines. Built of limestone and gabled, the facade has been raised for a new roof.
