Chiesa di Santa Maria della Spina

Chiesa di Santa Maria della Spina

A shining example of Pisan-Gothic architecture, this small triple-spired church can be found on the banks of the Arno. It was built between 1230 and 1223 to house a thorn from Christ's Crown of Thorns. The interior isn't as ornate as the facade, but the Madonna and child sculpture is worth a look.
