Arnolfo di Cambio is credited for the town plan of Castelfranco di Sopra (the town walls and gates once formed a checkered effect around the main square). The main attraction, just out of town, is the Badia di Soffena a 14th-century church, cloister and convent complex built here by Vallombrosian monks. The church, in Greek cross form, built on the cusp between the Romanesque and Gothic styles, has some fresco remains, mostly Bicci di Lorenzo and Masaccio’s younger brother, Giovanni di Ser Giovanni (known as Lo Scheggia). There’s a dig going on next door, with some medieval and Renaissance tombs currently being uncovered.
