Marco Guizzardi
A masterpiece of medieval Tuscany
The parish of San Donato in Poggio, from which it takes its name, the nearby medieval village, is a magnificent example of Romanic church in Tuscany, in an excellent state of preservation. It's foundation dates from the beginning of the year 1000, although the present building probably ended after a couple of centuries. Like many churches of Chianti, it preserves great value works of art: a wooden crucifix, in the apse, and a baptismal font in glazed terracotta attributed to Giovanni della Robbia.
