Porziuncola
This is the real Porziuncola in Assisi. Why is it special?
- some hermits built it in 350AD and relics of Our Lady were placed in it.
- St Bennedict live there
- St Francis recieved his vocation there in 1250ish
- St Francis re built the chapel with his brothers
- St Clare lived there
- St Francis was buried under it - until he was moved
