What to see near Gran Caffè Royale in Cascia
Not far from the square is Porta Leonina, one of the old gates into the town. Next to the gate stands the Chiesa di Santa Maria della Visitazione, first mentioned in a document from 856: the oldest parts of the present building belong to a 12th-century Romanesque parish church. It was once called the Collegiata di Santa Maria and, before that, Santa Maria della Plebe. The interior, with three naves, has frescoed altars and apse and preserves a 16th-century baptismal font and a rare pipe organ from the early 20th century. The church is currently closed to the public for renovation work.
