Why go

Pass through this medieval gate to see the transition between Assisi’s walled streets and the approach to the Saint Francis basilica. Its masonry and opening are a concrete reminder that pilgrims entered a defended town, not an isolated sanctuary. Pause on both sides to compare the gateway with the road and buildings it frames.

What to look for

  • A medieval gate on the route to the Saint Francis basilica.

Useful to know

  • Pause on both sides of the gate to read the wall and basilica approach.
