Bevagna - San Silvestro

Bevagna, known since Etruscian times and part of the Papal States from 778 on, was burnt down by Barbarossa´s troop in 1152, but was even then economically strong enough, to have three churches built in the center of town end of the 12th century. One of them is San Silvestro, located opposite of San Michele on the Piazza F. Silvestri.

It was erected in 1195 as well by the architects Rodolfo and Binello.
The interior is clear and sober Romanesque. The choir is risen.
