In 2026, Italy and the Franciscan community are experiencing a moment of exceptional significance: the eight-hundredth anniversary of the death of Saint Francis (1181/1182–1226; fig. 1). As highlighted by the INGVambiente Blog (in Italian), this anniversary is known as the Centenary of the Transit and marks the conclusion of the three-year period of commemorations that began in 2023 to honour the most important milestones in the life of the Saint.
