Characteristic apartment converted during the renovation of a 13th century Franciscan convent. The convent was very important from the 1400`s onwards, when it became a training center of eminent members of the Franciscan order. The spot is even tied to the miracle of Saint Francis (1229 a.d.) in which he freed a child who had been abducted by a wolf. The church and cloister, built from 1608 to 1634, are decorated with remarkable frescoes, including those about the miracle. In 1723 the convent housed 25 monks and its library had an impressive 1572 volumes.
In 1974 the convent was given up by the monks and restored, conserving the original architectural structure. The 25 apartments that make up the property were converted from the monks` ancient cells, and are therefore of small size. A well-tended garden of about 2 hectares, with a pool and tennis court, surrounds the convent. Inside the structure, one can admire the beautiful cloister with frescoed walls and an ancient well.
