Sanctuary of San Damiano
San Damiano links the lives of Francis and Clare in a small sanctuary among olive groves below Assisi. Its setting makes the visit feel more secluded than the churches inside the town walls.
San Damiano connects the histories of Francis and Clare in a hillside setting of olive groves. The modest sanctuary and its location make that shared story easier to picture than it is in the larger churches uphill. Plan it as a separate southern stop, with time for the approach and the quieter surroundings.
