S. Maria a Campi

Santa Maria or Santa Maria a Campi is a Roman Catholic parish church located on Via Spartaco Lavagnini #26 in Campi Bisenzio, just west of Florence, in the region of Tuscany, Italy. A church at the site was first documented in 1270 or perhaps as early as the 12th century. The church was dedicated to the Assumption of Mary, and built with facade facing west and the apse in the east. It lay on the road from Pistoia to Florence. To the left of the entrance is a pietra serena altar (1640) designed by Domenico Roti and dedicated to the Madonna del Carmelo. The altar frames a 14th-century fresco of the virgin and Child between St John the Baptist and St Lawrence. The stone choir dates to the second half of the 16th century.
