Eremo delle Carceri, the resting place of St. Francis, Assisi The Eremo delle Carceri is a pilgrimage site located in the dense forest of Monte Subasio, about 4 km from Assisi and at an altitude of 800 m. St. Francis and his first brothers imprisoned themselves for devotion, living a simple life, and praying more devoutly. The word "carceri," which may be confusing, does not mean "prison" but comes from the Latin "carcer," meaning a solitary, isolated place. This is where the term "carcerare" comes from, referring to monks and describing their practice of retreating to pray as hermits. In 1215, Benedictine monks donated the Eremo delle Carceri to Saint Francis, which became one of the most important places in his life: Immersed in a quiet, peaceful, centuries-old holm oak forest, Saint Francis followed his calling here and learned to pray devoutly. The Grotto of Saint Francis, among stories and legends Through a narrow passage, one reaches the Grotto of Saint Francis, where, according to the history of Francis of Assisi, the saint experienced his first true meditation and became a different person. Another story is that of Saint Rufinus, a companion of Saint Francis who managed to resist the devil. It is said that the hole in the grotto floor was caused by the devil when he was defeated and sank into the abyss. Many mistakenly believe that St. Francis's famous sermon to the birds took place here, but historical sources definitively link the legend to Piandarca, a town in the municipality of Cannara.

Hermitage of the Prisons, Assisi The Shrine of the Hermitage of the Prisons An ancient Franciscan shrine on Monte Subasio, 4 km from Assisi and 800 meters above sea level, in the heart of a forest of centuries-old holm oaks, is one of the Franciscan shrines guarded by the Friars Minor of the Seraphic Province of Saint Francis of Assisi. The word "carcere" does not mean "prison": it comes from the Latin "carcer," meaning a remote, solitary place, therefore suitable for the life of prayer. Francis, his companions, and, after them, the friars, came here for some prayers. Hermitage of the Prisons, Via Eremo delle Carceri, 38, 06081 Assisi PG, Italy Text/Source: SERAPHIC PROVINCE OF ST.
