Further information
Pax et Bonum! This is the greeting with which Assisi welcomes you, a Franciscan place par excellence, not only in Umbria and Italy, but throughout the world. In fact, St. Francis was born in Assisi in 1182; in the place where his birthplace is believed to have been located, today stands the New Church.
It is in Assisi that he is baptized, in the Cathedral of San Rufino, it is among its alleys that he spends his youth dreaming of a future as a valiant knight. It is here, where today the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore is located, in Piazza del Vescovado, that he strips by repudiating earthly goods for the love of God and brothers. It is still in Assisi, in the Church of San Damiano, that praying in front of the crucifix, he receives the task of renewing the Church of Christ, it is in the town square that he begins his preaching and his work of charity and peace, and finally here who died in 1226. His remains are kept in the Basilica of San Francesco, but the saint still lives today in every stone of Assisi.
In the morning, we will meet our local guide who will accompany us on an interesting guided visit to the most important Franciscan places, walking along Assisi's enchanting alleys, starting from the Basilica of Santa Cgiara until reaching the Basilica of San Francesco, where the saint's remains rest. Audio guide included for visiting the Basilica.
After the visit, we will reach a local restaurant for a delicious Umbrian lunch - drinks included.
