Yes, St. Francis is thought to be the first saint to receive the stigmata. He received it in 1224, two years before he died.

Where did st francis f assisi live?

In Assisi Italy. That is why he is called St. Francis of Assisi. The city of Assisi is a hill top town and there is a church located to honor him and in the basement is the grave of St. Francis. A very sacred place. Cars aren’t allowed in the city so to get into it you walk in and there are three levels to it. I never got beyond the first level and it’s cobbled streets.
