An interreligious dialogue roundtable is announced for Sunday, 11 October 2026, at 2:30 p.m. at the Abbazia del Goleto in Sant'Angelo dei Lombardi, with the participation of Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi.
The meeting is part of the initiative "Civiltà dell'Incontro," described in the local press announcement as including sessions devoted to exchange among ideas, cultures and religions. The announced programme also includes a guided visit to the abbey, institutional greetings and a concert by the Banda Musicale della Polizia di Stato.
Matteo Piantedosi has served as Italy's Minister of the Interior since 22 October 2022, according to the Ministry of the Interior.
The announced event
The roundtable on interreligious dialogue is scheduled for Sunday, 11 October 2026, at 2:30 p.m. at the Abbazia del Goleto, identified by the announcing outlets at Contrada San Guglielmo.
The initiative's name, "Civiltà dell'Incontro," frames the day around dialogue between ideas, cultures and religions. For readers, the practical point is that the published announcement covers several elements in one afternoon: the roundtable discussion, a guided visit to the abbey complex, institutional greetings and a concert by the State Police band.
The available sources describe the event as scheduled. They do not document that it has taken place or record any later changes to the programme.
The venue: Goleto Abbey
The Abbazia del Goleto is a monastic complex in the Sant'Angelo dei Lombardi area, in Alta Irpinia, listed at Via San Guglielmo, also referred to as Contrada San Guglielmo.
The Municipality of Sant'Angelo dei Lombardi and the abbey's site date the foundation to around 1133 by Guglielmo da Vercelli. The municipality describes Romanesque and Gothic elements in the complex, including the Torre Febronia and superimposed churches.
For visitors unfamiliar with the site, these details help explain what the guided visit refers to: a layered medieval complex rather than a single church building.
Practical notes
The acquired sources do not specify access arrangements, booking requirements or seating availability. They also do not confirm whether the guided visit and concert are open without invitation or registration.
Anyone planning to attend should check updated information from the organisers or local municipal sources closer to 11 October, particularly for start time, entry rules and parking or access instructions for Via and Contrada San Guglielmo.
