Assisi is generally regarded as the birthplace of St. Francis, who founded the Franciscan religious order in this town in 1208, and St. Clare, the founder of the Poor Sisters.

The basilica 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.

Situated in a position dominating the town of Orvieto which sits perched on a volcanic plug, the cathedral’s façade is a classic piece of religious construction, containing elements of design from the 14th to the 20th century, with a large rose window, golden mosaics and three huge bronze doors, while inside resides two frescoed chapels decorated by some of the best Italian painters of the period with images of Judgment Day. The cathedral has five bells, dating back to Renaissance

Orvieto is a millenary city and has revealed another of those aspects that make it unique and extraordinary: a labyrinth of grottoes is hidden in the rock.

Thanks to the distinctive geological nature of the mass of stone on which it stands, an incredible number of cavities were dug beneath the modern structure of the city.
