Along the left wall of the nave is what remains of a fresco perhaps by Lorenzo Salimbeni da San Severino (1374 - 1420), depicting St. Clare; a "Roman column with capital", coming from the remains of an ancient pagan temple dedicated to the god Metaurus, located in the vicinity of Castello della Pieve; Crucifixion of the sixteenth century, from the church of Santa Croce; a frescoed niche divided into two camps: top depicts a country where a river that would seem to serve the plastic representation of the Baptism of Jesus; bottom is painted a hut with some trees that served as a backdrop to the Nativity; some frescoes of the school of the fifteenth century Marche, from the church of St. Martin in Val Petrosa. They depict: the Crucifixion; San Floriano (?) St. Martin on horseback with beggar; The Virgin and Child enthroned; Sant'Antonio Abate.
