The Oratory of San Francesco Piccolino is a small, intimate place of worship located in the historic center of Assisi, a short distance from the Chiesa Nuova. Tradition identifies this space as the birthplace of Saint Francis, within the paternal home of the Bernardone family. The oratory retains a simple and sober atmosphere, reminiscent of the domestic setting of medieval Assisi, and is enriched by devotional frescoes painted in later periods. Despite its small size, the Oratory of San Francesco Piccolino has a strong symbolic value, as it represents the most intimate and original point in the saint's human and spiritual journey.

The New Church of Assisi stands on the site traditionally identified as the birthplace of Saint Francis, which belonged to the family of Pietro di Bernardone. The current building was constructed in 1615, by order of the Franciscan community and with the support of King Philip III of Spain, incorporating the medieval structures of the original residence. Inside the church, beneath the high altar, the domestic space considered to be the birthplace of Saint Francis is preserved, transformed into an oratory and place of devotion. The New Church therefore represents a site of great historical and spiritual value, as it directly links the figure of the saint to his family origins and to the daily life of medieval Assisi.

The Church of Santa Maria Infraportas is one of Foligno's oldest sacred buildings, founded in the early Middle Ages near the city's ancient eastern gate. The sober and austere exterior reflects the building's Romanesque origins, while the interior retains a simple single-nave structure. Of great significance are the medieval and Renaissance frescoes, which testify to a long continuity of worship and artistic interventions. The church played an important role in the city's religious life, also as a place linked to the confraternities. Today, it represents a significant testimony to medieval Foligno and its historical stratification.
