The church seen on Viale Cesare Battisti in Volterra, during our walk back down from the walled town of Volterra. We were heading from the Porta all'Arco to get into the town. back down to our hotel.

  

On the way saw the Chiesa di Sant'Alessandro.

 

The church of Sant'Alessandro is located in Volterra , in the province of Pisa , diocese of Volterra .

 

Of ancient foundation, so much to be considered built on the foundations of a pagan temple, it was consecrated in 1120 by Pope Callistus II .

 

Built in sandstone blocks, the church today looks like a gabled building, covered by a trussed ceiling and ending with a quadrangular choir; a loggia, built in the sixteenth century , hides part of the façade that is softened by three large arches that are set on semi-pillars with a semi-column leaning against it; in the central one opens the portal, in the lateral ones, the graded rombi, while on the left side of the building there is a lunette of the XIII century with a hunting scene above a small walled portal.
