Convento dei Cappuccini

The Convento dei Cappuccini in Morcone is a significant landmark within a region steeped in history. Situated in the town of Morcone, which is often overlooked in favor of larger cities like Caserta and Benevento, the convent is closely linked to the legacy of Padre Pio. The surrounding area boasts a well-preserved Centro Storico with ancient buildings and cobblestone streets, the ruins of Castello di Morcone, the cave of Santa Lucia, and numerous mountain trails. A unique experience is the historic train that runs from Pietrelcina to Morcone on select Sundays. A visit to Morcone and the Convento dei Cappuccini offers a comprehensive exploration of the area’s cultural and natural attractions.
