The Pieve of San Pancrazio in Sestino reopened for worship on Friday, October 23
Bishop Andrea Migliavacca celebrated a solemn Mass to mark the reopening of the Pieve of San Pancrazio in Sestino following extensive consolidation and restoration work. Local civil and military authorities attended the ceremony. The event included a rite of reopening, institutional greetings, and a technical and artistic presentation of the completed works.
The restoration addressed structural issues caused by the building's location in a high-seismic area. While previous repairs were conducted between 2000 and 2002 following the 1997 earthquake, Bishop Migliavacca noted that those measures did not resolve underlying foundation instability or the degradation of various structural layers. This recent project involved deep interventions to correct cracking between the church building and the rectory.
