Church of St Francis and Convent, Stroncone

The Convent of St Francis, sanctuary of the Blessed Antonio Vici of Stroncone, was founded according to tradition by St Francis himself in 1213. In the 17th century, it became an important centre of theological, historical and scholarly studies. The place has undergone many alterations over the centuries. 

On the outside, two chapels can be admired: in one there is a fresco by Tiberio d'Assisi from 1509 depicting the Madonna Enthroned with Child and Four Saints, in the other there are scenes from the life of Saint Anthony Abbot.
