She is known for being the city where they were born, lived and died in St. Francis, patron saint of Italy, and St. Clare.
The construction of the Upper Basilica of Assisi is a direct consequence of the influence he had on the Order in 1239 the succession to Brother Elias of new Father General of French origin.
