The brick church, built in 1642, is surrounded on three sides by a charming loggia that offers a spectacular panoramic view, especially at sunset. This loggia currently hosts a light installation called 'Azzurro,' created by Vittorio Corsini. Inside the church, two plaques commemorate the earthquake that struck the area in 1846, causing the destruction of the church itself and much of the Valdera. The church was completely restored four years after this tragic event.

In the square known as Piazza del Fosso, there is the Archaeological Museum which houses the artifacts from the excavations carried out at the archaeological sites of Ortaglia and Santa Mustiola in Ghizzano. The building housing the museum has an ancient history and is situated in the old cellars of the Peccioli Castle, with the possibility that some parts may even date back to the Etruscan era.

In the section dedicated to the Etruscans, the Ortaglia site, located east of Peccioli, has revealed a highly significant sanctuary complex dating back to the period between the 6th and 3rd centuries BCE. The excavated artifacts include votive objects, items associated with religious rituals, and Attic ceramics from Greece, bearing witness to the economic and social vitality of the area. Among the most valuable pieces stands out an Attic red-figure kylix, possibly created by the renowned Greek painter Makron, active in Athens around 490-480 BCE.
