Churches

On the river Velino, near the Roman Bridge, overlooking the Conventual Franciscan Complex with its cloister, which now houses the High School Carlo Jucci, structure attached to the Church of St. Francesco of Assisi, who gave his name to the square. Inside the church you can see the old floor, raised by the flooding of the river, and the frescoes of the Giotto school, by Guido Penseri and Lorenzo Torresani. Definitely worth visiting the Cathedral of Santa Maria, dating from the twelfth century., Where you can visit the Chapel of Santa Barbara, built from a design by Bernini, the marble bas-relief of the Conception and the Crypt. The Church of St. Agostino, due to the thirteenth century and sculpted by Primo Cavoli, presents a perfect geometry, noticeable even externally, while in its interior, the Virgin and Child enthroned between St. Augustine and St. Monica James Pandolfi, The Ecstasy of Saint Rita of Cascia, by Lattanzio Niccoli, the Slaughter of the Innocents by Ludovico Carosi. In the Church of San Domenico, which has recently risen to the role of the Basilica, is the monumental Organ Dom Bedos Roubo.
