La Verna

On the mountain that Count Orlando Cattani gave S.Francis, took place a wonder: in 1224, Francis from Assisi, took from his Lord "l'ultimo sigillo che le sue membra due anni portarno" (Dante, Divina Commedia, Paradiso); after that, a lot of things occurred: Andrea Della Robbia leaved here in XV century, several works of his artistic growing; giving thanks to Franciscan humility and parsimony, La Verna Forest is now an example of wood in wich was applied naturalistic selvicolture "ante litteram".

All of that 20 minutes walking from
