    Greccio is an Italian town of 1 549 inhabitants in the province of Rieti in Lazio.
    It is known above all for hosting a sanctuary founded by St. Francis and for being the place where the latter invented the crib. The medieval village of Greccio stands on a ridge of the Sabine Mountains, on the western edge of the Piana di Rieti, at 705 meters above sea level (about 300 meters higher than the valley floor). You can go up to the village from two sides on a paved road with a good bottom.

    GRECCIO, located in the Rieti Valley about halfway between Assisi and Rome, is - like some other places in the area - a popular destination for pilgrims, especially to San Francesco (Francis) of Assisi. In a cave above the place, where there is now a Franciscan convent (if you are interested, see komoot.com/de-de/highlight/361263 ), the famous Christmas mass with the nativity scene took place in 1223.
