What travelers are saying
- iswhizz2016Hebden Bridge, UK13 contributionsWe often visit churches and spiritual places in search of beautiful architecture but also special sacred energy. This one amazed us both, with its very warm earthy coloured paintings and low ceilings, a complete contrast to the usual grandiose cathedrals and churches which abound Europe. Incredible architecture too.Written September 20, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- L0d0London269 contributionsThis enormous baroque Basilica encloses the tiny in Gothic chapel St Francis prayed. It is an active pilgrimage site and likely to be busy. For this reason photographs are not allowed inside.
Follow the people in silence into the inner chapel with its beautiful early altarpiece and to another altar marking the spot where Saint Francis died.
In the cloister behind is Saint Francis’rose garden and a chapel with more frescoes.Written September 21, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The doors/corridors are very narrow - the place is definitely different from others. Around - there is a holy forest with many paths dedicated to certain frairs. It's about 4-5 km away from the city centre.Written October 23, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- LRS D32 contributionsThis is worth the hike and the ticket to see how they lived and to get to the very top. You can see both sides of the mountain and a special art installation of olive trees in a grove called "Third Paradise" from above. You can feel how guards may have been stationed and see both the slots for shooting arrows or pouring out hot liquids on attackers. Inside a very narrow spiral staircase leads to museum displays of ancient life in picture and floating floors still allow a sense of the majesty of the space.Written September 1, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- G.B.871 contributionsThe church itself is not exceptional, but the peculiarity is that just nearby there is the place where he was born and grew up St. Clare. Moreover, the baptismal font is the one where St. Francis was baptized. E' moreover present the crypt of St. Rufino.Written October 7, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

The 1st century Roman Temple of Minerva: the 13th century Palazzo del Capitano del Popolo: the 1305 Torre del Popolo and the 14th century Palazzo dei Priory. Then there is the Roman Forum underneath your feet that not many people know about. which encompasses the original Roman paving and the base of the ancient Temple of Minerva. There is a small cost for entry but well worth a visit.Written September 17, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
