About San Giovanni Rotondo
San Giovanni Rotondo is a hill town on the Gargano peninsula in Puglia, a pilgrimage centre built around the shrine of Padre Pio.
San Giovanni Rotondo stands on the southern slopes of the Gargano, the limestone promontory that forms the spur of Italy's boot, in the province of Foggia. Pilgrims have made it famous because the Capuchin friar Padre Pio lived and died at the convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie here. He was canonised in 2002, and a large modern church designed by the architect Renzo Piano stands beside the old convent.
