Casa Natale di Padre Pio

The Casa Natale di Padre Pio features original furnishings including a wrought iron bed, night table, and washbasin in a single room accessible by three steps.

Francesco Forgione, who later became Saint Padre Pio, was born in this modest house at 27 Vico Storto Valle on May 25, 1887.

The interior displays four lithographs of Madonna, two crucifixes above the bed, and educational books used during Padre Pio's early studies with teacher Caccavo.

The museum opens daily from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, with free admission on the first Sunday of each month for visitors and pilgrims.

A trapdoor in the floor leads to a basement that served as storage and stable for a donkey, accessible through an external door.
