Lonely Planet review for Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli
A quick walk from the train station is the imposing Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli, built between 1565 and 1685 around the first Franciscan monastery and tiny Porziuncola Chapel. Perugino fans will appreciate his intact crucifixion, painted on the rear wall. St Francis died at the site of the Cappella del Transito on 3 October 1226.
