Florence - San Jacopo sopr'Arno

From the Ponte Trinità there is a splendid view of the little Romanesque church of San Jacopo "on the Arno" (12th century but much altered subsequently) with its beautiful Campanile (1660, by Gherardo Silvani). The church has a porch dating from about 1000, the only one of this period in Florence.

The interior, nowadays used for exhibitions, has frescoes and altarpieces by 18th century Florentine artists.
