A 16th-century church in Castelfranci, closed in 1955 because of earthquake damage and later renovated and reopened.

The church of San Pietro dates from the 16th century. Repeated earthquakes left a deep mark on it, so much so that in 1955 it was closed for worship.Being very dear to the villagers, it was later renovated and reopened. We like it as a symbol of the tenacity of Irpinian communities.
