Lovely Palazzo

This is a lovely area in Assisi and you cannot really miss it in the run up to the wonderful Cathedral.

GIACOBETTI PALACE
Couples
This residence, owned by the Giacobetti family sits along Via San Francesco, close to the Oratorio dei Pelligrini and is easily identifiable by the large balcony, that if you are walking close to the building you will have to duck your head to avoid hitting. It is also home to the Società Culturale Arnaldo Fortini.

Basilica Palazzo
Couples
We regrouped here before entering the Basilica. We had the opportunity to use the restrooms, drink some water and stroll this beautiful open area. The view from this area enjoys a full wide panoramic view of the Valley. It was a beautiful day and we were able to get some lovely shots. In fact a wedding party showed up and were taking their photos here as well.

GATEWAY TO THE BASILICA
Couples
This Palazzo is the gateway to the lower church of the Basilica di San Francesco d'Assisi. You enter the Palazzo and pass through a security checkpoint on the left hand side. The toilettes (pay €.60) are located on the right hand side of the Palazzo. This area provides a nice overview of the Basilica.

great when there is not a concert
Friends
The Palazzo Giacobetti is a great place for a stroll and we've enjoyed it on prior visits to Assisi. This time, they were setting up for a concert, with a huge stage and accompanying lights/sound, so no really change to hang there.

Huge compliment to the Basilica
Couples
Along side the Basilica is the Palazzo. It is notable for the alternating use of color in the stone used, making the palazzo at times look like stairs when it is an incline. It is a grand area from which one can take in the size and beauty of the Basilica itself.

Stop and Take It All In
Solo
After getting off your bus or taxi you might want to run into the basilica, stop and take it all in first. The palazzo is a fitting entrance to so complex and rich a basilica.

Beside the Saint Francis Cathedral..
Couples
This palace is absolutely a sideshow, could be even more enhanced but be between the Papal Church of San Francesco, the Basilica of San Francesco and the beautiful Via Portica with the courtyard, it is quite normal that nobody will notice this equally beautiful building. However it is impossible to miss it.
