Assisi e la Basilica di San Francesco (Perugia - Umbria - Italy)
Assisi è una località di collina dell'Umbria, in Italia centrale. È il luogo di nascita di San Francesco (1181-1226), uno dei santi patroni d'Italia. La basilica di San Francesco è un'imponente chiesa su 2 livelli consacrata nel 1253. Gli affreschi duecenteschi che ritraggono la vita di San Francesco sono stati attribuiti, tra gli altri, anche a Giotto e Cimabue. La cripta ospita il sarcofago in pietra del santo.
Luogo magico e unico al mondo, legato alla storia di San Francesco, Assisi è un piccolo borgo medievale rimasto intatto per secoli. Ancora oggi è avvolto da una massiccia cinta muraria ed è dominato dalla mole della Rocca Maggiore e della grande Basilica. Qui, davanti alla bellezza delle piccole stradine, sembra che il tempo non sia mai trascorso.
Nel 1228, due anni dopo la morte di San Francesco, Papa Gregorio IX incaricò frate Elia di realizzare una chiesa dove poter custodire i resti mortali del Santo. Il luogo scelto, chiamato Colle dell'Inferno, poiché vi venivano svolte le esecuzioni pubbliche dei criminali, venne da quel momento in poi nominato Colle del Paradiso. La Basilica è suddivisa in due zone: la Basilica Superiore, in cui è custodito il Ciclo della Vita di San Francesco di Giotto, e la Basilica Inferiore, bella e caratteristica chiesa medievale.

Assisi:
Assisi is a town and comune of Italy in the province of Perugia in the Umbria region, on the western flank of Monte Subasio.
It was the birthplace of St. Francis, who founded the Franciscan religious order in the town in 1208, and St. Clare (Chiara d'Offreducci), the founder of the Poor Sisters, which later became the Order of Poor Clares after her death. The 19th-century Saint Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows was also born in Assisi.
Around 1000 BC a wave of immigrants settled in the upper Tiber valley as far as the Adriatic Sea, and also in the neighborhood of Assisi. These were the Umbrians, living in small fortified settlements on high ground. From 450 BC these settlements were gradually taken over by the Etruscans. The Romans took control of central Italy by the Battle of Sentinum in 295 BC. They built the flourishing municipium Asisium on a series of terraces on Monte Subasio. Roman remains can still be found in Assisi: city walls, the forum (now Piazza del Comune), a theatre, an amphitheatre and the Temple of Minerva (now transformed into the Church of Santa Maria sopra Minerva). In 1997, the remains of a Roman villa were also discovered containing several well preserved rooms with frescoes and mosaics in a condition rarely found outside sites such as Pompei.
In 238 AD Assisi was converted to Christianity by bishop Rufino, who was martyred at Costano. According to tradition, his remains rest in the Cathedral Church of San Rufino in Assisi.
The Ostrogoths of king Totila destroyed most of the town in 545. Assisi then came under the rule of the Lombards as part of the Lombard and then Frankish Duchy of Spoleto.
The thriving commune became an independent Ghibelline commune in the 11th century. Constantly struggling with the Guelph Perugia, it was during one of those battles, the battle at Ponte San Giovanni, that Francesco di Bernardone, (Saint Francis of Assisi), was taken prisoner, setting in motion the events that eventually led him to live as a beggar, renounce the world and establish the Order of Friars Minor.
The city, which had remained within the confines of the Roman walls, began to expand outside these walls in the 13th century. In this period the city was under papal jurisdiction. The Rocca Maggiore, the imperial fortress on top of the hill above the city, which had been plundered by the people in 1189, was rebuilt in 1367 on orders of the papal legate, cardinal Gil de Albornoz.
In the beginning Assisi fell under the rule of Perugia and later under several despots, such as the soldier of fortune Biordo Michelotti, Gian Galeazzo Visconti and his successor Francesco I Sforza, dukes of Milan, Jacopo Piccinino and Federico II da Montefeltro, lord of Urbino. The city went into a deep decline through the plague of the Black Death in 1348.
The city came again under papal jurisdiction under the rule of Pope Pius II (1458–1464).
In 1569 construction was started of the Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli. During the Renaissance and in later centuries, the city continued to develop peacefully, as the 17th-century palazzi of the Bernabei and Giacobetti attest.Now the site of many a pilgrimage, Assisi is linked in legend with its native son, St. Francis. The gentle saint founded the Franciscan order and shares honors with St. Catherine of Siena as the patron saint of Italy. He is remembered by many, even non-Christians, as a lover of nature (his preaching to an audience of birds is one of the legends of his life).
Assisi was hit by two devastating earthquakes, that shook Umbria in September 1997. But the recovery and restoration have been remarkable, although much remains to be done. Massive damage was caused to many historical sites, but the major attraction, the Basilica di San Francesco, reopened less than 2 years later.

Umbria is a region of historic and modern central Italy. It is the only Italian region having neither a coastline nor a border with other countries. It includes the Lake Trasimeno, Cascata delle Marmore, and is crossed by the River Tiber. The regional capital is Perugia. Umbria is known for its landscapes, traditions, history, artistic legacy, and influence on culture.The region is characterized by hills and historical towns such as Assisi (a World Heritage Site associated with St. Francis of Assisi, the Basilica of San Francesco and other Franciscan sites, works by Giotto and Cimabue), Norcia (the hometown of St. Benedict), Gubbio, Spoleto, Todi, Città di Castello, Orvieto, Castiglione del Lago, Narni, Amelia, and other small cities.
Umbria is bordered by Tuscany to the west, Marche to the east and Lazio to the south. Partly hilly and partly flat, and fertile owing to the valley of the Tiber, its topography includes part of the central Apennines, with the highest point in the region at Monte Vettore on the border of the Marche, at 2,476 m (8,123 ft); the lowest point is Attigliano, 96 m (315 ft). It is the only Italian region having neither a coastline nor a common border with other countries.The commune of Città di Castello has an exclave named Monte Ruperto within Marche .
The Tiber River forms the approximate border with Lazio, although its source is just over the Tuscan border. The Tiber's three principal tributaries flow southward through Umbria. The Chiascio basin is relatively uninhabited as far as Bastia Umbra. About 10 km (6 mi) farther on, it joins the Tiber at Torgiano. The Topino, cleaving the Apennines with passes that the Via Flaminia and successor roads follow, makes a sharp turn at Foligno to flow NW for a few kilometres before joining the Chiascio below Bettona. The third river is the Nera, flowing into the Tiber further south, at Terni; its valley is called the Valnerina. The upper Nera cuts ravines in the mountains; the lower, in the Tiber basin, has created a wide floodplain.
In antiquity, the plain was covered by a pair of shallow, interlocking lakes, the Lacus Clitorius and the Lacus Umber. They were drained by the Romans over several hundred years. An earthquake in the 4th century and the political collapse of the Roman Empire resulted in the refilling of the basin. It was drained a second time, almost a thousand years later, during a 500-year period: Benedictine monks started the process in the 13th century, and the draining was completed by an engineer from Foligno in the 18th century.
In literature, Umbria is referred to as il cuor verde d'Italia (the green heart of Italy). The phrase is taken from a poem by Giosuè Carducci, the subject of which is the source of the Clitunno River in Umbria.Wikipedia

Assisi, Perugia, Umbria, Italy, Europe
Assisi is a town and comune of Italy in the Province of Perugia in the Umbria region, on the western flank of Monte Subasio. It is generally regarded as the birthplace of the Latin poet Propertius, born around 50-45 BC. It is the birthplace of St. Francis, who founded the Franciscan religious order in the town in 1208, and St. Clare, the founder of the Poor Sisters, which later became the Order of Poor Clares after her death.

Italy Travel - Incredible Assisi
Many people visit Assisi for spiritual reasons, or to honor St. Francis. Our own trip was a pilgrimage to see great architecture, and we were not disappointed. This remarkable edifice was constructed to commemorate St Francis, (who probably would have been horrified by it's construction, since he was a simple man).
Whatever the history, this is an unbelievably beautiful monument. And the town that surrounds the Basilica is equally appealing.
When you visit, be sure to see:
The Bascilica di San Francesco d'Assisi, 1228 -- 1253 Brother Elia Bombadone. It combines Romaneque & Gothic styles
Upper church: early Gothic interior,
Lower church: Gothic - Byzantine style,

Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi, Assisi, Perugia, Umbria, Italy, Europe
The Papal Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi is the mother church of the Roman Catholic Order of Friars Minor Conventual in Assisi, a town of Umbria region in central Italy, where Saint Francis was born and died. The basilica is one of the most important places of Christian pilgrimage in Italy. With its accompanying friary, Sacro Convento, the basilica is a distinctive landmark to those approaching Assisi. It has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000. The basilica, which was begun in 1228, is built into the side of a hill and comprises two churches known as the Upper Church and the Lower Church, and a crypt where the remains of the saint are interred. The interior of the Upper Church is an important early example of the Gothic style in Italy. The Upper and Lower Churches are decorated with frescoes by numerous late medieval painters from the Roman and Tuscan schools, and include works by Cimabue, Giotto, Simone Martini, Pietro Lorenzetti and possibly Pietro Cavallini. The range and quality of the works gives the basilica a unique importance in demonstrating the development of Italian art of this period. The Franciscan friary (Sacro Convento) and the Lower and Upper Basilicas of Francis of Assisi were begun in honor of this local saint, immediately after his canonization in 1228. Simone di Pucciarello donated the land for the church, a hill at the west side of Assisi, known as Hill of Hell (Italian: Colle d'Inferno) where previously criminals were put to death. Today, this hill is called Hill of Paradise. On 16 July 1228, Francis was canonized by Pope Gregory IX in Assisi, and he laid the foundation stone of the new church the following day, although construction may already have been begun. The construction having been begun at his order, the Pope declared the church to be the property of the papacy. The church was designed by Maestro Jacopo Tedesco, who was in those days the most famous architect. The construction was supervised by Brother Elias of Cortona, one of the first followers of Saint Francis and the former Vicar General of the Order under Saint Francis. The Lower Basilica was finished in 1230. On Pentecost 25 May 1230, the remains of Saint Francis were brought in a solemn procession to the Lower Basilica from its temporary burial place in the church of San Giorgio (St. George), now the Basilica of Saint Clare of Assisi. The burial place was concealed for fear that St Francis' remains might be stolen and dispersed. The construction of the Upper Basilica was begun after 1239 and was completed in 1253. Both churches were consecrated by Pope Innocent IV in 1253. Pope Nicholas IV, a former Minister-General of the Order of Franciscans, raised the church to the status of Papal Church in 1288. The Piazza del Loge, the square leading to the church, is surrounded by colonnades constructed in 1474. They housed the numerous pilgrims flocking to this church. In 1818, the remains of Saint Francis were rediscovered beneath the floor of the Lower Basilica. In the reign of Pope Pius IX the crypt was built so that the faithful might visit the burial place of the saint. On 27 October 1986 and January 2002, Pope John Paul II gathered in Assisi with more than 120 representatives of different religions and Christian denominations for a World Day of Prayer for Peace.
Assisi Perugia
Assisi è conosciuta come il luogo in cui nacquero, vissero e morirono san Francesco, patrono d'Italia, e santa Chiara. Nella monumentale Basilica di San Francesco, costruita nell'XIII secolo, sono custodite le spoglie mortali del Santo. E’ composta da due parti completamente diverse tra loro la Chiesa Inferiore e la Chiesa Superiore, entrambe quasi completamente ricoperte di affreschi di pittori famosi, tra cui principalmente Giotto.
Nella medievale Piazza del Comune si può ammirare il Tempio di Minerva, risalente al I secolo a.C., un vero gioiello d'arte antica.
All'interno della Basilica di S. Chiara, sono conservati i resti della Santa e il bellissimo crocifisso ligneo che, secondo la leggenda, parlò a S. Francesco.
Nella Cattedrale di S. Rufino, vescovo, martire e patrono di Assisi è custodita una cisterna romana, la fonte battesimale al quale furono battezzati Francesco e Chiara.
A Rivotorto, che dista 3 km da Assisi, sono conservati i presunti resti del tugurio, un basso edificio in pietra coperto da frasche in cui soggiornò a lungo San Francesco.
Nella Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli, si trova infine La Porziuncola, che fu la terza chiesa riparata da San Francesco dopo la sua vocazione e divenne per il Santo un luogo particolare, dove sostava spesso in preghiera.
