Tour Overview

Stop

It is dedicated to and contains the remains of Saint Clare of Assisi, a follower of Saint Francis of Assisi and founder of the Order of Poor Ladies, known today as the Order of Saint Clare. Listen to her incredible story of austerity, seclusion from the world and poverty.

Stop

Stop

Tempio della Minerva

The portico of the Temple of Minerva dates from the first century BC and was converted into the church of Santa Maria della Minerva in 1539. It was renovated in the Baroque style, but the façade is still the original Roman columns and architrave. A fresco of Giotto's in the Basilica of St. Francis shows the building with bars on the windows, leading historians to believe that it was used as a jail in medieval times.

Stop

Piazza del Comune

Piazza del Comune, the town's main square, was the forum in Roman time in which commercial, religious, economic, political, legal, and social activities occurred. The piazza is still at the heart of local life, and you'll find shops and places to eat in the streets surrounding it.
