EREMO DELLE CARCERI - ITALIA

Eremo delle Carceri di san Francesco the Hermitage of the Prisons, is a place of deep silence and prayer hidden among the forests of Mount Subasio. Here, Saint Francis and his companions withdrew from the world to seek God in solitude, surrounded by the beauty of nature. The caves and chapels of Carceri speak of peace, simplicity, and a life close to creation — the very heart of Franciscan spirituality. It was in this sacred quiet that Francis found strength, inspiration, and unity with all living things. Even today, pilgrims come to Eremo delle Carceri to feel that same stillness — a reminder that true peace begins in the silence of the heart. Pace e Bene.
