• Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli - Situated 4 km from Assisi, the Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli houses the Porziuncola Chapel, a cherished site by Saint Francis where he received divine blessings. Originally an ancient chapel surrounded by a small forest, it belonged to the Benedictines of the Monastery of S. Benedetto del Monte Subasio. After being neglected for a long period, it was restored by Francesco, who leased it from Abbot Teobaldo. Following the Saint’s passing, permanent structures such as the friars’ choir, small oratories, and a convent were established around the church. In the latter half of the 1500s, Pius V commissioned the construction of a grand basilica to enclose and safeguard the Porziuncola, accommodating the throngs of pilgrims visiting the site.
• Basilica di Santa Chiara - Located in Assisi, the Basilica of Santa Chiara is a neo-Romanesque religious structure, renowned as one of Italy’s most famous and beautiful churches in Umbria. It not only marks the historic center of the city but also holds significant artistic and cultural value. Built by Benedictine monks to honor Santa Chiara, born Agnese in 1194 and passing on 13 September 1253, it is a focal point for pilgrims visiting Assisi, alongside the Porziuncola, Eremo delle Carceri, Chiesa Nuova, Basilica of San Damiano, Cathedral of San Rufino, and the Basilica of San Francesco.

• Basilica Papale e Sacro Convento di San Francesco d’Assisi - The Basilica of San Francesco d’Assisi, safeguarding the mortal remains of the seraphic saint since 1230, stands as a significant place of worship in Italy and globally. In 2000, it was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The first stone was laid on 16 July 1228, shortly after Francis’ death and his canonization by Pope Gregory IX. Tradition holds that Francis himself chose the site for his burial. The church is pivotal in the spread of Gothic architecture in Italy and holds great importance for the papacy, which viewed the Franciscan order as a key ally in strengthening ties with the common people. Construction began in 1228 under Pope Gregory IX and was consecrated in 1253 by Pope Innocent IV.
