Santuario di San Francesco...

A roadtrip with Steve can find us in many different places.  Today we ended in Monteluco, a place we've been before but one that demanded a more thorough explore.

The Sanctuary of St. Francis, in Monteluco, is a place of great spiritual, as well as scenic interest. St. Francis stayed here for a short while in 1218 and founded a primitive convent at the edge of the "sacred wood".  Preserved are the rooms the monks
lived in, clearly representing most of his eight values:  love, compassion, peace, trust in God, respect, simplicity, service and joy (simplicity especially).
