Pescia - Church of San Francesco

On the left bank of the river is the Gothic Church of San Francesco (begun 1298), with an interior partly remodeled in Baroque style. The finest work of art in the church is a panel-painting by Buonaventura Berlinghieri (1235) depicting St Francis with the stigmata and six scenes from his life. The part of the town lying on the right bank of the river is Pescia's secular center.
