San Donato, Siena

The Monte de Paschi di Siena, whose original offices were in the Palazzo Salimbeni, whose rear facade faces the church, has a Pinacoteca/Museum called San Donato.

A church, initially titled to St Michael Archangel, and named San Michele in Poggio, was present here by 1119.

The lower portion is made of stone, while to top is brick with a marble rose window.

Among the works inside the church are a Christ with Crown of Spines by Sebastiano Folli, a Christ appears to St John of the Cross by Giovan Battista Sorbi and five canvases depicting the Life of St Theresa of Avila by Antonio Nasini.
