The Basilica of St. Clare in Assisi, Italy, is a beautiful Gothic church dedicated to St. Clare, a close companion of St. Francis of Assisi and the founder of the Poor Clares. Built in the 13th century, the basilica houses her tomb and relics. Its striking pink and white stone façade, majestic arches, and serene interior reflect the simplicity and devotion of St. Clare’s life. The church is also home to the original San Damiano Cross, which played a key role in St. Francis' spiritual journey.

It honors St. Francis' early life and family, with a small adjoining museum offering insights into his upbringing and the house where he lived before dedicating his life to God.

The Temple of Minerva in Assisi is an ancient Roman structure dating back to the 1st century BCE. Originally dedicated to the goddess Minerva, the temple’s well-preserved Corinthian columns and façade dominate the Piazza del Comune.
