The Basilica of San Francesco is located in Assisi, it is the place that since 1230 preserves and preserves the mortal remains of the seraphic saint. Commissioned by Pope Gregory IX as specialis ecclesia, it was awarded by the Pontiff the title of Caput et Mater of the minority order and at the same time perpetually entrusted to the friars themselves. In the complex history that marked the evolution of the Order, the basilica and the adjoining Sacred Convent was always guarded by the so-called `friars of the community`, the group that subsequently went on to establish the Order of Friars Minor Conventual.
