Pistoia - Sant'Andrea

Pistoia - Sant'Andrea
Sant'Andrea, believed to have been Pistoia´s ancient cathedral, is thought to date back to the period of Lombard domination. The present day church dates to the mid 12th century. It is located on the Via Francigena, one of the major pilgrim-routes to Rome.

The extensive carvings over the central door were executed in the mid-12th century by Pisan brothers Gruamonte and Adeodatus.

Here is the nave, that got extended in the 12th century.

October is not the best month for interior photos, it's getting dim already in the afternoon.
