Giotto and St. Francis An exhibition in Perugia 14 March-14 June

By Wednesday, 11 March 2026 10:24

To mark the opening of the Giotto and St Francis exhibition in the National Gallery of Umbria in Perugia on 14 March, Elle Viaggi is offering a three-day, two-night package.

An exhibition dedicated to St. Francis and Giotto

The exhibition celebrating the eighth centenary of the death of St Francis, which will run from 14 March to 14 June 2026, is dedicated to two figures who left their mark on the history of art and spirituality: Giotto and St Francis of Assisi. The exhibition is one of the most important cultural events of 2026 in Italy, a high-profile tribute to St. Francis, the patron saint of Italy, and the genius who translated his life into revolutionary images, the great 14th-century painter Giotto di Bondone. Through works, insights and artistic comparisons, the exhibition highlights the decisive role played by Giotto in transforming the story of the saint into a human, intense and deeply modern narrative: not just sacred art, but a true visual revolution.

A three-day Spoleto-Perugia-Assisi art package

Elle Viaggi creates experiences designed for art lovers, combining exclusive itineraries with visits to museums, exhibitions and cultural events throughout Italy: packages that include all elements of a stay, from the tickets for the exhibition, museum or event, to the itinerary, the transfers and of course the stays in a wide range of accommodations.  On this occasion it is offering a package that starts on the first day in Spoleto. The second day is dedicated to Perugia and a visit to the St. Francis exhibition, which will run until 14 June, in the National Gallery of Umbria. The third day leads to Assisi, a city that symbolizes universal spirituality. Here, in the Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi, visitors can admire the frescoes that recount the life of the saint with a narrative force that still moves millions today.
