Museum & Cultural Center
In the National Centre for Padre Pio’s Museum & Cultural Center, visitors can view the largest collection of authentic Padre Pio relics in the United States. From the gloves and bandages Padre Pio wore to cover the wounds of his stigmata, to bark from the tree under which he began to suffer Christ’s passion, our Museum & Cultural Center offers a comprehensive walk through the life of the beloved saint.
