Activity itinerary

Assisi
  • 2m
Assisi, located in the heart of Umbria, is a medieval city famous for being the birthplace of St. Francis, patron saint of Italy. The historic center of Assisi is characterized by picturesque streets, ancient churches and charming squares. The Basilica of San Francesco, divided into two overlapping churches, is one of the main places of pilgrimage and houses the remains of the saint. The frescoes by Giotto and Cimabue, which adorn the walls of the basilica, are masterpieces of medieval art. Assisi also offers beautiful views of the surrounding Umbrian countryside, and its spiritual and peaceful atmosphere attracts visitors from all over the world.
Roccaporena, Santuario di S. Rita
  • 40m
Roccaporena is a small and picturesque medieval village located a few kilometers from Cascia, in Umbria, and famous for being the birthplace of Santa Rita. In the heart of Roccaporena is the birthplace of Santa Rita, today an important pilgrimage point, where visitors can learn about the saint's life and her deep bond with the territory. The house has been transformed into a small museum, which collects objects related to his life and spirituality. In Roccaporena there is also the Sanctuary of Santa Rita, which includes the convent where the saint spent part of her youth and the small church that houses some relics attributed to her. Another significant place is the cave of Santa Rita, a natural refuge where the saint retired in prayer and meditation.
Cascia
  • 1h
Cascia is a small and charming village located in the Umbria region, in central Italy. He is best known for his connection with Saint Rita of Cascia, one of the most venerated saints of the Catholic Church. The Shrine of Santa Rita in Cascia is the place where her life and spirit are celebrated, attracting thousands of pilgrims every year. Inside the sanctuary, the body of Saint Rita is preserved, which has been the object of veneration since the moment of her canonization in 1900. The sanctuary has become a center of spirituality and prayer, where the faithful ask for graces and favors, inspired by the example of the saint's life. The figure of Saint Rita remains, therefore, one of the most significant in Christianity, a symbol of unwavering faith and unconditional love. Cascia is also surrounded by unspoilt nature, with mountainous landscapes that make it an ideal destination for those seeking relaxation and direct contact with the natural beauty of Umbria.
