of Mount Subasio. Is known for being the city where they were born, lived and died in St. Francis
patron saint of Italy and St. Clare. «Intra Tupino e l'acqua che discende
del colle eletto dal beato Ubaldo,
fertile costa d'alto monte pende,
onde Perugia sente freddo e caldo
da Porta Sole; e di retro le piange
per grave giogo Nocera con Gualdo.
Di questa costa, là dov'ella frange
più sua rattezza, nacque al mondo un Sole,
come fa questo talvolta di Gange.
Però chi d'esso loco fa parole,
non dica Ascesi, ché direbbe corto,
ma Oriente, se proprio dir vuole.» (Dante Alighieri, Paradiso XI) Churches - Basilica di San Francesco d'Assisi (divisa in parte inferiore e superiore)

The size of a finger, is called "Mostaccioli", "Boni and perfume" even today are used to do in the monasteries, especially those of her sisters. When Francis heard approaching his last hour, he told a friar to write Jacopa a letter to inform them of his imminent death and asking her to join the Porziuncola
recandogli a robe for the burial and candles for the funeral: "A woman Jacopa, servant of the Most High, Brother Francis, the poor man of Christ, wish health in the Lord and communion in Holy Spirit. Know, dearest, that the Lord has blessed me the grace to tell me that is rapidly approaching the end of my life. So if you see me still alive, upon receiving this letter, quick to come to Santa Maria degli Angeli. Because if it comes later than Saturday, I see you live. And bring a cloth to wrap color heron my body and candles for burial. At the end of the letter, then expressed a wish: "Please also bring those sweet, that you were used to give me when I found ill in Rome. " Just as the brothers were looking for someone who brought the letter to Rome, Francesco sensed Jacopo was already going to him. Immediately after, they heard a knock at the door of the tiny hut adjacent to the chapel, which served as a nursing ... She had arrived with his children. For her, the Porziuncola, was taken from the enclosure, which had never been deleted nemmanco for Clare. Jacopo had brought everything Francis wanted, including cakes, made with almonds, sugar and other ingredients, then known in Rome and its surroundings, with the name and someone mortarioli wanted to identify as a variant - but perhaps more to the similarity of the name - with nostrani "Mostaccioli". the fortress of Assisi This cake gets its name from the shape: the word "rock" in local dialect, means "round."
