Activity itinerary

Cattedrale di San Rufino

  • 10m
Located in the oldest heart of Assisi, the Cathedral of San Rufino is the city's mother church and one of its most important religious buildings. Linked to the figure of the saint who first brought Christianity to Assisi, the cathedral is also deeply connected to the memory of St. Francis, who preached several times in the square in front. Its splendid facade makes it one of the most significant examples of Umbrian Romanesque architecture.

Basilica di Santa Chiara

  • 10m
In elegant Italian Gothic style, this building is one of the symbols of Assisi and has housed since 1260 the body of Saint Clare, founder together with Saint Francis of the order of the “Poor Dames of San Damiano”. The facade, made with the typical white and pink stones of Mount Subasio, illuminates in a suggestive way at sunset, creating plays of light that enhance its beauty and the atmosphere of meditation.

Piazza del Comune

  • 10m
The route winds through the medieval alleys until you reach the lively Piazza del Comune, which has always been the heart of Assisi's cultural and social life. Built on the ancient Roman forum, the square is dominated by the Temple of Minerva, now transformed into the church of Santa Maria sopra Minerva, and surrounded by the main buildings of medieval civil power, such as the Palazzo dei Priori and the Palazzo del Capitano del Popolo, which tell the long history of the city.

Piazza Inferiore di San Francesco

  • 10m
Piazza Inferiore di San Francesco is one of the most iconic squares in Italy and represents the scenic setting of the Basilica of San Francesco. Its arcades, dating back to the end of the fifteenth century, wrap the open space welcoming pilgrims and visitors to the tomb of the Poor One, a devotional destination since the thirteenth century.

Basilica Papale e Sacro Convento di San Francesco d'Assisi

  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
During the walking tour of the historic centre of Assisi, hints are given to the Basilica of San Francesco, in order to introduce its historical and spiritual significance. On selected dates it is also possible to participate in guided tours dedicated to the Basilica, also available in combination with this itinerary, which allow a more complete analysis of the figure of the Saint and his cultural, artistic and spiritual heritage. It is recommended to check the dates and availability among the Reservation Options for the possible inclusion of the dedicated visit.
