The man was caught urinating on the door of the Sante Croce church in Florence.
A man caught urinating on the door of the Santa Croce church in Florence, one of Italy's most famous churches and the burial place of Michelangelo, justified his behaviour by claiming to be a non-believer.
The 24-year-old from Livorno was caught by police patrolling the area in the early hours of Thursday morning and quickly defended the act by saying "I'm an atheist", La Nazione reported.
He now faces charges of performing an obscene act in a public place.
The church is the burial gound of Renaissance artist Michelangelo and the Italian physicist, engineer and philosopher, Galileo Galilei.
