Square in Assisi
Piazza del Comune
Assisi’s main square is built over the old Roman forum and features the remarkably intact Temple of Minerva, now a church with free entry. The piazza connects the town’s medieval layers and serves as the natural starting point for exploring on foot.

Rocca Maggiore
The medieval fortress crowning Assisi's hilltop rewards the steep climb with sweeping views across the Spoleto Valley and the Umbrian plains. Even without entering the paid interior, the approach walk through quiet lanes and the free panorama from the walls are worth the effort.
