convento, interesting place

The oldest evidence relating to the cloister graphics are represented by a bird's eye view of Deposit (published by Blaeu in 1663 ) and the first registers of Gubbio : those of the Ghelli (1768 ) and Gregorian (1814 , 1856) . Even in the nineteenth century there was a colon - born interior perimeter , then downed some of the columns were reused for other factories of the city and the surrounding area (one of them is , for example, in an adjacent room at the entrance of the monastery ) . At the center of the cloister was the cistern to collect rainwater , in a lateral position , at the entrance , there was also an ancient well, now closed (see below) . At the southeastern and southwestern arm of the cloister there were graves and ossuaries .
On the walls of south-eastern and north-east are two single , one open and the other buffered .
Next to the entrance that leads to the upper floors there is a fountain , above which is a walled stone of unknown origin with the inscription , in Gothic capitals, " S. OBLATARUM ." The southwestern arm of the cloister is occupied by a newer building of the others ( perhaps dating back to the nineteenth century or, at most , in the early twentieth century) , with a porch on the ground floor and interconnecting rooms upstairs. The prospect of this body is punctuated by pilasters , cornices and arches made of bricks , which delimit other arches, round arches on the ground floor , with pointed arches on the upper floor .
