β β β β β Truly amazing, spiritual place. If you are following the life (and death) of St. Francis of Assisi or you are on pilgramage this is THE place you MUST visit.

β β β β β Being in Assisi and admiring the Basilica of St. Francis, it's definitely worth the 20-minute drive (approx. 8 km) to see this beautiful basilica. The uniqueness of this building lies in the fact that there is another church inside the basilica. The tiny stone chapel at the heart of the basilica dates back to the 10th century and was rebuilt by St. Francis.

β β β β β This is the place where Saint Francis died on the 3rd of october. Moreover in the little church, called Porziuncola, inside the basilica, the Saint receiced the vocational call. He was used to stop here to pray. In this place he received Saint Chiara and his brothers to create his order. You should also visit the place for his architectural art that is amazing.

β β β β β I think everyone knows of this place if they visit Umbria. It is very famous but is a bit outside Assisi I recommend having a car if you want to get here. They have mass on Sunday mornings but you can still enter to look around even during mass which was a bit weird but still worth a look.

β β β β β One of the two most impressive and important Basilica of the region. A must see even for non-Catholics. It is an astounding monument to the dedication of man to a higher ideal than our collective selves. A place of immersive contemplation and meditation.

β β β β β This Francis-linked site is a bit off the main trek, but should be considered essential and is actually rather easy to reach, particularly if coming in by train. It is an easy 1/2 mile stroll from the station.
Once there you will not only find the stone chapel that Francis and followers rebuilt at the start of his ministry, but a chapel marks the place of his death.
The complex is vast with interesting displays of creches, some focus on telling the story of Clair, and a large bookshop.
Connection between the train station and Assisi is available by a city bus ride - buy inexpensive tickets from the helpful shop at the station - that transports one near the top of town where gravity can lead you through the town.
