Temple of St. Francis

The Temple of St. Francis is a church on the slope of Monte Orlando above the old town of Gaeta, founded in 1283 with gifts from Charles II of Anjou beside a convent linked to Francis of Assisi. In the 1850s Giacomo Guarinelli rebuilt it in neo-Gothic style with funds from Ferdinand II of the Two Sicilies. Its high facade looks out over the Gulf of Gaeta.
