San Fortunato, Todi

The church features a central portal with pointed arch, decorated pilasters, and a tall bell tower modeled after the Franciscan church in Assisi.

Construction began in 1292 under Franciscan supervision, replacing an earlier structure that contained altars consecrated by Pope Innocent III in 1198.

The crypt contains the tomb of Jacopone da Todi and houses the remains of Saint Fortunatus, the 6th-century bishop who protected the city.

Located at Piazza Umberto I number 6, the church stands at the highest point of Todi's historic center, featuring three naves of equal height.

The interior displays gothic tracery in its vaults and contains carved wooden choir stalls that line the walls of the semicircular apse.
