Stop At: Chiesa di Santa Chiara, Via Santa Chiara 49 Complesso Museale di Santa Chiara, 80134, Naples Italy

Three years after his death and one year after the canonization of St. Clare, it began in 1257 with the construction of the church and adjoining convent of the Poor Clares, who had lived in San Damiano since 1212.Famosa come la città natale del santo patrono d'Italia, San Francesco d'Assisi, la piccola città addormentata documenta tutti gli alti e bassi della sua vita. Durante un tour a piedi, vedi la stalla in cui è stato detto di essere nato, la sua casa d'infanzia e il luogo in cui ha promesso la sua vita alla sua vocazione. Ascolta l'altro santo, meno noto della città, Santa Chiara, che divenne uno dei primi veri seguaci di San Francesco. Visita il Convento di Santa Chiara, che le è dedicato, prima di dirigersi verso la Basilica di San Francesco di Assisi per un tour. The site was that of the Church of S. Giorgio, where St. Francis was buried, before being moved to the basilica in 1230.

The building is characterized by the execution of the whole body with pink and white bands and by the majestic flying buttresses supporting the two sides of the church.
