Basilica San Lorenzo Maggiore |
Combining three different periods - Greek, Roman and Gothic - this church is located in the city center and was built in 1270 on the remains of an early Christian one. As well as its architectural significance, it is also said to be the church in which Boccaccio, a 14th century writer, met Maria d’Aquino, the woman who became his beloved and muse, the Fiammetta (little flame) of his works.
