San Francesco D'Assisi, Calascibetta

San Francesco d'Assisi is a Roman Catholic church in the town of Calascibetta, in the region of Sicily, Italy.

The church and an attached Capuchin order convent was erected in 1589 at this site which formerly was a Jewish neighborhood.

A prior convent belonging to the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor Capuchin was erected in 1534 in the valley between this town an Enna.

Within a few decades, a few Capuchins from Enna were able repossess the Convent, and that has continued till the 21st century.

The Sacristy has a 17th century wooden tabernacle, and the library contains a collection of antique books, some as old as 1500.
