09 - The door of the dead

Along the main street, there is a rare testimony of the “door of the dead”, the door from which the deceased leaved his house. These doors were very common in Umbria: the one which was in the house of San Francesco was very famous, who was brought out from the door of the dead when he decided to leave his father’s house to dress poverty, and so it was considered dead. It is very difficult to see one of this door in our province instead.
