Church of San Salvatore in Mustolio
Piazza San Salvatore
Lucca, June 2024
"San Salvatore in Mustolio is a Romanesque- style, Roman Catholic church located on Piazza of the same name in central Lucca, region of Tuscany, Italy. A church at the site was documented since the first decades of the 11th-century, but the present layout derives from a 12th-century reconstruction. The lower 2 meters of the church used stones from the medieval walls of the town. The upper portion of the church was refurbished in the 19th century. The church was affiliated with the Canons of San Frediano in the 18th-century. The church was suppressed under Napoleonic occupation. In 1820, it was property of the Confraternity della Carità. The exterior facade has some 12th-century reliefs in the architraves: one depicting a Eucharistic meal; the second, a miracle of San Nicolao Prete signed by Biduino." (San Salvatore, Wikipedia)
