Florence - San Simone

Restoration work after the 1966 floods revealed the extent of the treasures that the little church of San Simone had to offer. Founded in the 12th century and completely remodeled in the 17th century by Silvani it has extremely elegant architecture, frescoes and paintings that had almost been forgotten, including a "St Peter in Majesty" ascribed to the "Maestro della S. Cecilia", the master of St Cecilia.
