β β β β β Chiesa che venne come tante, utilizzata per usi militari, salvo poi essere riaperta al pubblico: da notare la splendida Deposizione dalla Croce, opera di Antonio Begarelli
Church that was like many others, used for military uses, only to be reopened to the public: note the splendid Deposition from the Cross, by Antonio Begarelli

β β β β β Chiesa di grandi dimensioni, appena all'interno della cerchia delle mura di Modena.
Fa parte di un complesso conventuale non piΓΉ attivo, ma che ancora si intravede bene nella sua struttura globale.
Personalmente ritengo di maggior fascino la vista esterna rispetto a quella interna, a tre navate, che ha subito saccheggi, utilizzi impropri, un terremoto abbastanza devastante e tanti rimaneggiamenti da risultarne stravolta rispetto alla sua forma e bellezza originarie.
Questo almeno si legge sui libri di storia, visto che la sua costruzione risale ai primi decenni del 1200.
Personalmente non mi ha trasmesso nessuna particolare emozione, purtroppo.
Sempre all'esterno c'Γ¨ una piccola fontana con una statua in bronzo raffigurante San Francesco.
Qualche importante opera d'arte Γ¨ ospitata nelle cappelle laterali, ma non ho conoscenze adeguate per parlarne.
Se si Γ¨ in visita a Modena e si vuole inserire San Francesco nei propri itinerari, personalmente consiglierei di passare da qui prima di visitare il Duomo con annessa torre Ghirlandina.
Il Duomo Γ¨ di una tale bellezza da eclissare ogni altra chiesa, monumento o palazzo modenese, ma non solo.
Large church, just inside the circle of Modena's walls.
It is part of a convent complex that is no longer active, but which is still clearly visible in its overall structure.
Personally, I think the external view is more fascinating than the internal one, with three naves, which has undergone looting, improper use, a devastating enough earthquake and many alterations to be distorted compared to its original shape and beauty.
At least this can be read in the history books, since its construction dates back to the early decades of the 1200s.
Personally, he didn't convey any particular emotion to me, unfortunately.
Also outside there is a small fountain with a bronze statue depicting St. Francis.
Some important works of art are housed in the side chapels, but I don't have adequate knowledge to talk about them.
If you are visiting Modena and want to include San Francesco in your itineraries, I would personally recommend that you go through here before visiting the Duomo with the adjoining Ghirlandina tower.
The Cathedral is of such beauty as to eclipse any other Modenese church, monument or palace, but not only.

β β β β β La chiesa in origine gotica ha subito un pesante rifacimento ottocentesco. Meravigliosa la Deposizione dalla Croce di Antonio Begarelli!
The originally Gothic church has undergone a heavy nineteenth-century makeover. The Deposition from the Cross by Antonio Begarelli is wonderful!
