Assisi

On Tuesday, Program Assistant Ilaria Locchi and Intern Angelica Haas led some Fellows on a tour of Assisi.  After learning about the life and history of Saint Francis, we saw the Basilica di San Francesco, and the marvelous frescoes by Giotto and Cimabue housed inside.


After lunch, we stopped at the Santuario della Madonna dei Bagni in Casalina to see the ceramic tiles that cover its walls; gifts of thanks to the Madonna for her miracles.
