Italian birthplace of the founder of the Franciscan religious order (6)

I believe the answer is:

assisi

(Other definitions for assisi that I've seen before include "Home town of St Francis" , "Homeplace of St Francis" , "town, in Italy" , "Umbrian town" , "St Francis's town" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
