Examine Giotto's one-of-a-kind depictions of Saint Frances of Assisi's life in the Basilica of San Francesco d'Assisi to learn more about the importance of this popular pilgrimage site. You can go on to the Basilica of Santa Chiara, a shrine dedicated to Saint Clare of Assisi.
After that, you'll have time on your own to have a stroll around the charming town and take in the quiet and tranquil atmosphere that is so typical of this fascinating place. The next attraction is the Santa Maria degli Angeli Church, where the Franciscan Order was first formed.
