I went by myself on a Wednesday afternoon, and it was very quiet and welcoming to walk around, sit, explore, and learn. I stayed for several hours and brought a book to read and a pbj sandwich and said a rosary on one of the benches and enjoyed the beautiful views. It looks like a great place for a big group retreat day--- by the looks of the pavilions and soccer fields.

Beautiful spiritual place. Can feel God’s presence here. Pray the rosary and don’t worry. God will take care of your situation. Have FAITH! And when your prayers are answered - spread the message and Thank Jesus and let everyone know.

Very nice center for Padre Pío, the story is very interesting. Great museum. Would love to see some more language accessibility in the future but awesome otherwise and the gift shop and church is nice!

My mom and I shared the wonderful experience of walking the grounds of this most devotional place. The Mass, the gift shop, the art, and the special designated area/room where you could almost feel Padre Pio's presence! A treasured memory for both of us! ? ✝ ❤

Love this place. It is beautiful when you drive up. The people on site are so kind. The chapel is beautiful the museum is very informative as to who Padre Pio was they also offer a short video with some of his modern day miracles. It is so peaceful here it gives you the perfect environment to think, meditate, pray and light a candle for those who need prayers. There is a gift shop to purchase medals, books, oil and candles.

Beautiful grounds. A great place to visit. This beautiful Shrine has beautiful opportunities to visit and pray. Looking for a mass or just a moment, stop. It's worth it.

My wife and I first visited the National Centre for Padre Pio two years ago. The centre is a spiritual museum and cultural center. It is a popular Catholic pilgrimage shrine to Padre Pio, a well-known Catholic Saint that died 40 + years ago.What we found is a beautiful, relaxing, and spiritual place that houses a museum, Chapel, cafe and gift shop. The shrine and facilities are state of the art and well constructed and the grounds are very expansive and well maintained. The museum has a great deal of information that spans the entire life and struggles of Padre Pio.For our visit, they had a docent and a movie about Padre Pio. Within the facilities there is a beautiful Chapel, a tasteful gift shop, bookstore and cafe where you can sit and enjoy a coffee, tea, or latte and treats. There is also a Rosary Service and Mass.This is a serene and peaceful place of prayer, reflection and beauty that brings a good feeling of comfort and healing. You will leave filled with a sense of calm and centeredness. It is a beautiful place to visit and reflect on the words of Padre Pio, "Pray Hope and Don’t Worry. Worry is useless. God is merciful and will hear your prayer."

My husband and I went there after our second miscarriage. It was a beautiful peaceful place that gave me serenity and felt able to accept whatever comes. Our healthy son was born less than a year later. I also wore the Miraculous Medal AFTER I found out I was pregnant—very important—to maintain the pregnancy. Thank you St Pio and Blessed Mother for our children. Our little girl was born 3 yrs later.

Padre Pio answered my prayers through 2 Songs that was playing when I was listening to FM station when I was leaving the chapel. I really thanked Padre Pio and every one else who are in heaven that my wife was fine after delivering our Healthy son. I hope when he grows up he will be close to Lord and become a great leader

This is my second time visiting and I always love coming here! There is a peace in the air and you can just forget about everything and enjoy the beautiful views and the visit with God. I am a true believer in miracles and I am sure he worked a miracle on my niece who was near death. My only suggestion was that last time I was there, there were a lot souvenirs of St. Jude, but there was not a lot this time! I am a huge follower and will love to see more of him there!
