CALENDIMAGGIO di Assisi 2024 - Abbonamento

The Piazza del Comune has always been the fulcrum of the social and cultural life of Assisi. It is no coincidence that all the main roads coming from the city gates converge at this point.Located above a Roman Forum, in the Middle Ages it was the place of popular gatherings, and consequently the most important buildings of city life were built here: the Temple of Minerva, the first seat of the municipality of Assisi - which was subsequently moved to the Palazzo dei Priori, the Palace of the Captain of the People and the Tower of the People.Thus, by placing yourself in the center of the square and turning around, it is possible to read the entire history of the city through the succession and intertwining of the different eras. Every year in the month of May, in the Piazza del Comune, a festival takes place whose origins are lost in time: Calendimaggio.
