Sanctuary of Grecchio, one of the four shrines of St. Francis around Rieti Valley. Here, Francis depicted the Christmas story with living figures to help the local farmers understand it. Since then, setting up a nativity scene at Christmas has been a custom throughout most of the Christian world. Grecchio is a very special place

Church dating back to the first half of the 15th century, the façade stands out on the outside, framed by red L’Aquila stone and embellished by a rich late Gothic portal. The interior houses works of considerable value as well as a superb nativity scene in polychrome terracotta from the early 16th century.

Monastery and Basilica of Santa Rita da Cascia. This imposing religious complex dedicated to the Saint is certainly worth a visit. It is located along the Via di San Benedetto.

Lago di Piediluco / Lake Piediluco Located in the southeastern foothills of Umbria, with a tributary bordering Lazio, Lake Piediluco, although 1.85 km² wide, is the largest natural lake basin in the region after Lake Trasimeno. Its name seems to be interpreted as "at the foot of the sacred grove." Together with Lakes Lungo, Ripasottile, and Ventina, located in the province of Rieti, it represents one of the remains of the ancient Lacus Velinus, a large basin of alluvial origin formed starting in the Quaternary period. The irregularly shaped lake, with a circumference of approximately 13 kilometers, is located at an altitude of 375 meters and has a maximum depth of approximately 19 meters. Its natural tributary is the Fuscello stream; the other two tributaries are represented by artificial canals. One connects it to the Velino River, while the other, 42 kilometers long, consists almost entirely of tunnels and diverts part of the waters of the Nera River into the lake. The inflow and outflow of water is entirely tailored to the energy needs of the industry in nearby Terni. The emissary, the Velino River, is diverted towards Marmoré, where it flows into the Nera River to form the Marmore Waterfall.

Cascia was a highlight of our trip to Italy and the visit was a matter close to our hearts. Absolutely worth seeing!
