Hundreds of thousands are expected to visit the Basilica of St Francis of Assisi in Italy to commemorate the 800th anniversary of his death. Pilgrims can pray at a display of the Saint's remains, with nearly 400,000 registered to see the bone fragments. The exhibition aims to revive St. Francis' message of peace and fraternity, highlighting his influence on believers and non-believers alike. The history of St. Francis, from a wealthy merchant's son to a mendicant friar, is also showcased. The celebrations will continue with various initiatives, including a visit from Pope Leo XIV.
