This is the Church of Santo Stefano in Assisi, Italy. It’s a beautifully simple church built of stone. Tradition holds that these bells—seen in the picture—miraculously tolled on October 3, 1226 at the moment that St. Francis died. He passed away in a small church a mile or so away (where the Basilica of St. Mary of the Angels now stands).
