    Adriana, our guide, was very understanding and waited for us because there was a train strike and our train was delayed for over an hour. She is very knowledgeable, empathetic, patient, and caring. She truly made our visit unforgettable, and we fell in love with San Giovanni Rotondo. I highly recommend her!

Whether you’re a pilgrim or just an admirer of Italian culture, this town invites you to relax, explore, and enjoy heartfelt hospitality.

A Brief History

The origins of this town date back to Roman times, but it gained worldwide fame in the 20th century as the place where Saint Pio of Pietrelcina, known as Padre Pio, lived and performed his ministry. His legacy attracts millions of pilgrims every year, turning a quiet village into a renowned spiritual center with impressive sanctuaries and monasteries.

Best Time to Visit

Is the Sanctuary open every day?

Yes, the sanctuary and related chapels are open daily, usually from early morning until evening. Specific hours may change during religious festivals, so it’s a good idea to check in advance.
