La Verna - Franciscan Sanctuary
Explore the sanctuary where the 13th-century saint, St. Francis, lived part of his life at La Verna - Franciscan Sanctuary. Tour the museum or enter the church to appreciate the art. Take in the view of the valley from the cliff or hike one of the many paths through the forest. You can attend a religious service and hear the priests pray throughout the complex or go to one of the private cells for meditation. The cell St. Francis used is still preserved. There are two restaurants on site. Plan your La Verna - Franciscan Sanctuary visit and explore what else you can see and do in Chiusi della Verna using our Chiusi della Verna day trip planning tool.
