A stone-paved internal alley within the monastic complex of the Franciscan Sanctuary of La Verna in Arezzo, Tuscany, Italy, on April 9, 2026. Patches of melting late-season snow lie against the base of the rough stone walls on the left. The path leads toward a sunlit archway opening onto the main courtyard. A visitor information panel with a site map stands in the center of the frame. To the right, the natural rock face of Monte della Verna rises directly beside the monastery buildings, highlighting the sanctuary's construction into the mountain landscape that St. Francis of Assisi first retreated to in 1213.
