Magliano Sabina. Church of Saint Peter

The Romanesque church of St. Peter in Magliano Sabina dates from the twelfth century.

It has a simple and elegant façade embellished with cantilever arches and columns.

There is a semicircular window as a rosette above the portal.

The interior is divided into three naves by ten columns, each with capital in different style, probably salvaged from other places.

Of all the frescoes, seconded for the restoration and never returned, only one remains: a Madonna and Child attributed to Pancrazio Jacovetti from Calvi.
