Montepulciano - Sant'Agostino

A short distance north of the Palazzo Cervini by way of Via di Gracciano is the Church of Sant'Agostino (1427). The handsome Renaissance facade by Michelozzo di Bartolommeo (with a terracotta relief, also by Michelozzo, in the tympanum) shows curious reminiscences of Gothic. The interior (aisleless) was remodeled in the late 18th century. The church contains a fine wooden Crucifix (15th century) and a number of pictures, mainly of the 16th and 17th centuries.
