St. Francis of Assisi has been co-patron saint of Alviano for some years. The cult of St. Francis is deeply felt in Alviano and is of ancient origin. In 1212 Francis operated here in Alviano the “miracle of the swallows” as reported in the biography of the saint written by Tommaso da Celano. Inside the castle there is a chapel that is decorated with frescoes dedicated to the life of the Saint of Assisi.
The archival documentation gives us back a devotion present in the community since 1400.
For a few years now, the feast of St. Francis of Assisi has hosted an event dedicated to choirs from various cities in Umbria and Lazio who perform inside the castle in songs of medieval origin
