With old-fashioned text and Western script, it exudes a sense of the past while offering valuable navigational information through its carefully engraved image. As we gaze upon this artful representation, our eyes are drawn to the majestic mountain range that serves as a backdrop to Assisi's architectural wonders. The statue standing tall on a hill adds an element of grandeur to the landscape, reminding us of the rich history and cultural significance embedded within these ancient walls.
