Basilica di Santa Chiara

The Basilica of Santa Chiara was built on the opposite hill to the Basilica of San Francesco. The two basilicas, with facades inspired by the Romanesque model, seem to dialogue through their simplicity. Both have a triangular tympanum and a central rose window that symbolizes a spiritual embrace towards the pilgrims who pass through the streets of Assisi.

Basilica superiore di San Francesco d'Assisi

When Saint Francis died in 1226, it was immediately decided to build a basilica in his honor to contain his relics. Thus, on July 15, 1228, Pope Gregory IX, a friend of Saint Francis, proclaimed him a saint and, on the same day, laid the first stone of the basilica, which would be built on a hill near Assisi, towards the north.
