Lonely Planet review

Along the waterfront boulevard, Lungarno Mediceo, is the Museo Nazionale di San Matteo, a fine gallery that journeys from the ceramics adorning the façades of medieval churches to 12th- and 13th-century Pisan painting (including on crosses) and early Renaissance sculpture.

Don't miss the exquisite sculptures in wood by Valdambrino and Giovanni; paintings by Buonamico Buffalmacco who decorated Camposanto with frescoes; and Giovanni and Nicola Pisano's Madonna del Latte (Our Lady of Milk) sculpted for the Chiesa di Santa Maria della Spina.
