St. Padre Pio Shrine, Catholic shrine in Landisville, New Jersey, United States.
St. Padre Pio Shrine is a Catholic chapel on a ten-acre property in Landisville featuring a four-story white stucco monument. The structure contains three statues and provides spaces designed for reflection and personal prayer.
Marie and Pete D'Andrea, Italian-American farmers, established the shrine in 1997, with completion in 2002 following architect Ron Angelo's design. The project grew from their personal devotion to the Italian saint.
The shrine holds religious artifacts, including a glove that belonged to Saint Padre Pio, drawing visitors from multiple states who seek a connection to this revered Italian saint. The site serves as a gathering place for those drawn to prayer and devotion.
The grounds are open to visitors and offer quiet areas for staying and praying. It helps to wear comfortable shoes as you can explore the entire property.
The monument was built with a steel frame structure that gives the white stucco stability and durability. This mix of modern construction with traditional appearance is unusual for shrines of this kind.
