Profile

 Countless wild animals make their home here, including wild boar, pheasants, hares and many birds... all the creatures befriended by St. Francis when he walked this verdant paradise at the turn of the XIII century. The centuries old farmhouse faces the sunny south and has a stunning view of Assisi's world famous basilica, dedicated to St. Francis and housing Italy's most important medieval art treasures. |
 The origins of "Alla Madonna del Piatto" date back some six or seven hundred years, with the oldest structures likely built as a fortified refuge for shepherds. Over the centuries, generations of farm families made modifications and enlargements, giving the house its present shape. The current owners of "Alla Madonna del Piatto" have recently restored the building with a high regard for traditional building materials and local craftsmanship, while making the necessary adjustments to meet modern standards of comfort. |
 This farmhouse inn makes a splendid holiday stop-over, perhaps delaying for a few days to enjoy the peace and the clean country air, or to explore Assisi and the other medieval treasures of Umbria. The Italian-Dutch owners are multi-lingual and are on hand to help you make the most of your stay in Umbria. |
