Church of St. Thomas

The parish church of St. Thomas in Calomini, stands in a dominant position with respect to the Borgo, and can only be reached by driving along a steep, narrow road that runs alongside vegetable gardens and cultivated fields.

The difficulty of reaching that site has resulted in the partial use of the sacred building, which is used only at special events. The date on which the church was built is around the 10th century and it has been included in the estimation of the diocese of Lucca since 1260.

The church has a rectangular plan with three naves and a vaulted ceiling. The choice of location on which the church of St. Thomas arose probably derives from the pre-existence of a watchtower, later converted into a bell tower.
