Asyż, śladami mistyków

Is it possible to feel the touch of eternity in one place? We invite you to a unique cinematic tale titled "Assisi – In the Footsteps of the Mystics," in which we discover an extraordinary city of pink stone, hidden in the heart of picturesque Umbria. In this episode, we go off the beaten track during a unique anniversary year, experiencing an incredible atmosphere of vibrant celebration and international community. We set off on a stroll through charming, narrow alleyways that lead us to the bustling Piazza delle Comune, full of architectural gems. Seeking a deeper atmosphere and contemplation, we escape the city bustle into the absolute, forested silence of the Eremo delle Carceri hermitage on the slopes of Mount Subasio and discover the austere, utterly authentic walls of the Monastery of San Damiano. We also visit the moving Porziuncola, the tiny, touching house of St. Francis enclosed within a monumental basilica, where a legendary garden of thornless roses lies hidden. A visit to the local sanctuaries makes a profound, lasting impression, where we descend underground to stand in contemplation before the perfectly preserved, incorrupt bodies of saints, including Blessed Carlo Acutis. Our journey concludes with the mighty Basilica of St. Francis, where we admire the stunning Upper Church with Giotto's frescoes, and the entire journey culminates in the golden sun setting behind the Umbrian hills.
