Scenes like this all around
|
 |
The Gothic arch was in use in the 12th-14th
centuries here
|
 |
In the main piazza, the medieval city hall and
tower, next to the Temple of Minerva
|
 |
Store in an ancient building
|
 |
Nice metal work
|
 |
Looking to the valley below and the other major church,
St. Mary of the Angels and Martyrs or somesuch
|
 |
Integral buttresses on many of the buildings
|
 |
If I'd had the camera out and focused a second sooner,
I would have had a perfect Franciscan Abbey Road shot
|
 |
Facade of the Mary church in the valley; among its two
claims to fame is that it is the 10th largest church in the
RC realm
|
 |
Its large and largely unadorned interior
|
 |
But its main attraction is this, Francis' original
little chapel (well adorned)...
|
 |
Situated beneath the dome of the church
|
 |
And, from our Stazione camper-stop, one last look at up-town
Assisi and the great Francis duomo
