What To Expect

Basilica di Santa Chiara

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.

    I did the walking tour led by Werner, and it truly was one of the best tours I have ever done! It was a small group, and he was so informative, answering any questions we had. St Francis is very special to me and I had been looking forward to this trip, and Werner made it an experience I will always cherish.
