A church in the former Benedictine monastery of Montefalcione, keeper of the relics of Saint Felician the Martyr.

This church is part of the old Benedictine monastery linked to Montevergine, a complex that now also houses Montefalcione's town hall. It is a place very dear to the community because it holds the relics of Saint Felician the Martyr, to whom the people of Montefalcione are particularly devoted.We suggest visiting during the last three days of May, when the village celebrates Saint Felician with a heartfelt, well-attended festival. We like the interweaving of religious and civic life that you sense in this complex, where the old monastery has become the administrative heart of the village without losing its spiritual soul.
