What you'll see
A plain-fronted Romanesque church whose inside is covered wall to wall in 14th-century frescoes of the Old and New Testaments, plus the Santa Fina chapel by Ghirlandaio.
A brief history
It was the town's main church; it has no bishop, so it's a 'collegiate' church rather than a cathedral.
