San Francesco, Gothic Catholic church in Gubbio, Italy.
The church structure contains three Gothic apses and an octagonal bell tower constructed during the thirteenth century with detailed stonework and ornamental elements.
Construction began in 1256 on the property of Giacomello Spadalunga, who provided clothing to Saint Francis after his encounter with a robber.
The interior features three apses decorated with frescoes by the Eugubine school, including depictions of Christ, saints, and the Life of Saint Francis.
The church opens daily from 7:30 AM to noon and 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM, with free admission and access through Piazza 40 Martiri.
The cloister retains fragments of a third-century Roman floor mosaic that maintains its original colors beneath a fourteenth-century Crucifixion fresco.
