The rectory of San Tiburzio (San Bruzio) was founded around the 11th century from the Camaldolesi and finished towards the end of the 12th century. Originally the structure of the church has a Latin cross plant (length 32 m, width 12 and 20 at the transept). Of the rectory, after centuries of abandonment, today survives the rests of the presbitery, two parts of the transet and traces remains of the octagonal cupola . The architecture of San Bruzio it's the most beautiful example of Romanesque art in Maremma. Between the scarce rests of today we can admire many sculptures and we can just imagine which was the splendor of the church in the times of its maximum splendor. |
