Comment from Philippa Burne
Assisi, Italy is a little town with a big reputation. The population is around 3,000 people, but Assisi is visited every year by more than 4 million tourists! And it’s all because of one man: Saint Francis, patron saint of Italy and one of the world’s most popular saints.
