Saint Michele of Antraccoli

Via Vecchia Romana, 877, 55100 Capannori LU

No traces remain today of the early medieval construction; however, considerable parts of the XII^th century building are visible. In that period the church was smaller than it is today and probably consisted simply of a nave with a bell tower on the south side. Rests of the original entrance and walls of the XII^th century church are still visible. Only later was the building enlarged and reached its present dimensions. The third construction phase goes back to the XVII-XIX^th century and implied a further increase in height of the façade and of the southern side as well as the substitution of the older windows with new larger ones. In the XVIII^th century a bell tower was built on the north side of the church since the medieval one had been incorporated in the rectory building opposite.
