Visit to San Giovanni Rotondo between history and religion

Guided walking tour in the heart of Gargano, to discover Padre Pio's birthplace

A town famous throughout the world, known as the birthplace and life of San Pio da Pietrelcina. San Giovanni Rotondo, in the heart of the Gargano, is a pilgrimage center capable of attracting thousands of visitors every year among winding streets, squares and buildings rich in history. Explore it in the company of an expert guide, starting from the Sanctuary dedicated to Padre Pio, divided into the Upper and Lower Church. Admire the modern structure and the dome, then the frescoes and mosaics inside. Then continue towards the second structure, where you can gather in prayer in front of the tomb and the body of the Saint. Cross the square in front to reach the Convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie, where you can find personal objects, relics, photographs and memories linked to his life and charitable actions, in the context of a museum completed by his original cell. Subject to availability, end with a visit to the Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza Hospital, an institute renowned for cutting-edge care for the needy, but also a place of hope, comfort and solidarity.
