    Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi located in Piazza Cavalli. It was built in Lombard Gothic style between 1278 and 1373. The facade has two buttresses, a rose window, a spire and some spires, while the sides have flying buttresses; On the right is part of the cloisters, of which a portico remains. Inside, decorated with frescoes from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the annexation of the city to the Kingdom of Sardinia was proclaimed in 1848. The central portal of the basilica bears at the top a lunette with the relief of St. Francis stigmatized, and inside, on the right wall of the ambulatory, is a bas-relief with the rector in the chair and friars, executed in Giovanni's studio Antonio Amadeo around 1490. The basilica is the burial place of the patriot Giuseppe Manfredi, President of the Senate of the Kingdom of Italy, who died in 1918. (Wikipedia)
