"Death is not the end, but only a very specific end: namely, the end of a first, provisional period of life and the beginning of a never-ending new epoch. Jesus said, 'My kingdom is not of this world.' Therefore, there is another world. Not only his disciples, but also his opponents believed in this other world. The doctor of the law, for example, asks him what he must do 'to gain eternal life.' (...) Precisely because it lasts forever, this life is so precious that everything... of the present world pales in comparison." (Text by Albino Luciani / Pope John Paul I)

The frescoes and the modern art museum are definitely worth a visit. Tickets cost €6, and the complex is also open on Sundays (closed on Mondays). The visit lasts about an hour, if accompanied by the excellent volunteer guide included in the ticket.

The Villa Comunale (the equivalent of a public garden in southern Italy) has been closed for redevelopment since December 2024, and as of August 2025, it has not yet reopened: the entrances are barred.

Venafro Castle takes its name from the Pandone family, ancient owners of this medieval manor which was later transformed into a noble palace in the sixteenth century.

Dirt road with a beautiful panoramic view of the Venafro valley, Monte Sammucro and Monte Corno.

From Monte Cesina, at 1180 meters above sea level, the view extends over the Matese mountains, the Venafro plain and the Montecassino convent.

A small and little-known village surrounded by greenery. The archaeological findings, such as the polygonal walls on Monte Cerino, Monte S. Croce and in the nearby Monte Sammucro suggest that it was inhabited since the times of the Samnites and the ancient name "Valle del campo" refers precisely to the defensive function of the Sannio. In the town centre, the church of Sant'Antonio di Padova, the remains of the site and the church of Santa Caterina, of the Convent of San Domenico, the remains of a watchtower and those of a Samnite settlement are worth seeing.
