The parish church of Santo Stefano and San Giovanni Battista is a sacred building located in Pieve a Camaiore.<\/p>\n
Mentioned in a bishop’s parchment from the year 817, the parish presents itself (after a purist restoration in 1930) in the guise it assumed in the 12th century, incorporating parts of a previous building, attributable to the 10th century. The current portal, from the seventeenth century, only partially blocks the traces of a double opening, however asymmetrical.<\/p>\n
The interior houses a baptismal font, obtained from a sarcophagus from the 2nd-3rd century, and a 15th-century triptych by Battista da Pisa.<\/p>\n
The bell tower houses 3 manual bells, cast by the Fratelli Bimbi of Fontanaluccia (MO) in 1824. The concert is tuned in G3 minor, i.e. the notes (starting from the large) are: G3, A3 and Bb3 ascending.<\/p>\n
This was the mother church or the first church in all of the Camaiore area, from which Christianity subsequently spread both in Camaiore and in the surrounding areas. The anniversary of the Dedication is remembered on November 14th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
