Church of the Most Holy Crucifix

Located just outside the walls along the road known as Costa del Molino, it stands in an area that may once have housed a small chapel built by Andrea Sansovino for the Augustinian friars and mentioned by Vasari (although no known documentation exists). In 1926 it was restored as a shrine and memorial to the 178 citizens of Monte San Savino who fell in the First World War, with the adjacent Park of Remembrance, and was later enlarged thanks to private donations in 1942.

The interior, with a single nave and Latin cross plan, contains memorial plaques for the fallen and a large painting of The Chapel of the Madonna delle Vertighe created in 1999. In the left transept is an early seventeenth-century Ecstasy of a Holy Priest; on the high altar is a painted Crucifix from the second half of the thirteenth century. Also in the left transept is a seventeenth-century painting of Saint Anthony of Padua with the Child, Saint Roch and Saint Francis. In the sacristy there is an eighteenth-century painted terracotta Pietà and four busts of Saints in modeled and gilded stucco from the second half of the nineteenth century.
