The Umbrian city of Assisi is best known for San Francesco (Saint Francis) and is often visited because of him, but no less important is Saint Clara (Santa Chiara), who joined him and founded the branch of the "Clarissinas" within the Franciscan religious family .

Both of their churches of the Holy Sepulcher are located there, in the city in which they lived and worked:

Coming from the valley, that is from Santa Maria degli Angeli, you can admire all the beauty of Assisi. A real postcard!

Assisi

With its world-famous city walls, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Assisi promises visitors a wealth of culture and history. Shopping and long walks in the old town are also part of Assisi's itinerary.

Near Perugia, the capital of Umbria, lies Assisi. The birthplace and place of work of St. Francis and St. Clare, it is a city worth visiting, and not only because of its famous children. Assisi's medieval city center and city walls are so well preserved that they were declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000. The city walls and the Basilica of San Francesco are therefore popular attractions for travelers.

Founded by the Romans under the name Asisium, the terraced layout of the oldest Roman part of the city can still be seen today. The forum, an amphitheater, and the temples of the goddess Minerva (goddess of wisdom) are almost completely preserved.
