The Ristoro Lucarelli trattoria

The Pieve di San Giusto in Salcio has been mentioned numerous times since the 11 C in the papers of the Abbey of Coltibuono and is worth a visit if you’re passing by. This church is a basilica with three naves, three apses and an open truss-beamed roof. The divisions between the naves consist of arches supported by pillars in quadrangular sections with a very simple corbel at the top.
