Rivotorto is a frazione of the comune of Assisi in the Province of Perugia, Umbria, central Italy.

[2][circular reference] In the month of August the annual Rassegna degli antichi sapori ('Feast of the Ancient Flavours') is held.

St. Francis of Assisi started his life of austerity in a stone hovel in Rivotorto where he lived from 1209 to 1211.

However, it is the site from which St. Francis set off to walk to Rome with ten companions to meet the Pope.

On the northwest side of the church is a bronze statue of St. Francis washing a leper by Fiorenze Bacci (2001).
