The Medieval village of Orciano Pisano

The village of Orciano Pisano still saves today just few traces of its Medieval past because of a violent earthquake occurred on 1846 that destroyed a considerable part of the town and most of its ancient buildings.

Inside the municipal territory it is possible to admire some very artistically valuable buildings, like the Saint Michael Archangel Church, built during the XIX-th century on the place of an ancient parish according to the plant of a Latin cross for the will of the Grand Duke Pietro Leopoldo II of Lorena.

Interesting ot visit is also the Saints Augustine and Monica Oratory, built during the XVII-th century and restored several times along the next centuries. Today the oratory as used as parochial room, hosting shows where the youngest people performs.
