Very interesting is also the ancient Church entitled to
Saint Andrew, recently restored and transformed so to host
the Municipal offices of Casale Marittimo. The stone-made
facade shows its original features and, on the main portal,
a bass-relief made by Alberto Sparapani, portraying "Saint
Andrew". The interior of the church shows a wooden roof
covered by painted trusses and it rich of numerous frescoes
painted
by Stefano Ghezzani. Particularly interesting are also the
Our Lady of the Graces Chapel and the Saint
Sebastian Church.
The first one was
built in the XVIII-th century and it still saves today a
copy of an original plate painted by some artist from Siena,
whereas the Saint Sebastian Church was built on a pre-existing
oratory and restored by using original materials coming from
a Roman villa.
