La Pila sits in the hills above Assisi, surrounded by forest, cypress trees, and wide views over the Umbrian landscape. Here you find the luxury that nature gives, enriched by centuries of Franciscan history.
After the passing of Saint Francis, monks came to this hill in search of solitude and silence. The ruins of their monastery remain as a quiet, powerful presence that gives the land a particular spirit.
