Anyone who visits the basilica of the Sacro Convento, with its famous frescos of Giotto and Cimabue, is impressed and astonished by the sight of its richness, which is so in contrast with the teaching of 'il poverello' Francis. The tomb of Francis lies in the lowest part of the basilica. The inhabitants of the monastery do not call themselves Franciscans but Conventuals. They see themselves as keepers of his tomb, as protectors and promotors of his thoughts. The Franciscanbs who live in the sanctuary Eremo delle Carceri. Honour Francis in a different way: they liven in poverty.
