Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli

What a beautiful church. Most special because of the portinocula - St Francis’ special little church. Incredible works of art- especially one of Francis receiving the stigmata. They also have confession booths with multiple languages, with very caring and open priests ready to hear and help you draw close to God. Francis’ place of death and his rose garden as well. Wonderful masses offered. A great gift shop. I wish I had bought more Tau necklaces while I was there to give to others. Also the bookstore is awesome. So many great Franciscan themes and authors.

We attended the procession at night. Arrive early for the rosary and have time to pick up a candle. It was packed inside the church. It was a nice, moving experience when in the area. The church is currently undergoing some renovations.

Amazing experience, was able to take my mom to the place she always dreamt of… such a lovely experience

Beautiful Basilca where inside there is the Little Church that St Francis Of Assisi had renovated when he mistakenly got the message from The Cross wrong as he thought he had to rebuild the small Church but realised God meant the World Church .

Very beautiful and inspiring. The exterior is undergoing renovations, but interior restorations had recently been completed, and the results are stunning. No photographs are allowed inside, so put away the phone and soak in the art and architecture. Catholics will want to stop into the small shrine dedicated to St. Francis (it marks where he died). Also do not miss the beautiful adoration chapel off to the left of the central altar. Reverent and serene.

Hi there, A Cathedral with impressive art on walls and ceiling. Well it was not allowed to take pictures but I've done one.

A very nice basilica in Assisi, probably often overlooked because people flock up to the hilltop to the town and the more famous basilica and other attractions. This is on the other side of the main train station of Assisi. It’s actually walkable distance from the train station. There is a nice museum, rose garden and gift shop in side as well. The piazza Della Porziuncola in front of the basilica is quite large and nice to walk around and take in the beauty of this place.

Attended Mass here on Sunday, with a good amount of pilgrims. Large inside, under renovations now even the Porziuncola. It’s a very special place to visit where St Francis prayed with his followers & passed away.
