Benevento's municipal cemetery will move to winter hours from Sunday 25 October 2026, with special extended daily openings around the commemoration of the dead in early November.
According to the NTR24 report on the new schedule, ordinary winter access runs from 25 October 2026 through 27 March 2027: from 07:30 to 17:00 on weekdays and from 07:30 to 13:00 on Sundays and public holidays. The cemetery is ordinarily closed on Wednesdays. The City of Benevento has published an official notice titled "Nuovo orario di accesso al cimitero," confirming that the municipality has issued updated cemetery access hours, though the detailed timetable below relies on the NTR24 account.
Exceptional openings from 28 October to 3 November
From Wednesday 28 October through Tuesday 3 November 2026, the cemetery is reported to open exceptionally every day from 07:00 to 17:30. That means the usual Wednesday closure does not apply during this period.
Exhumation, reburial and other works inside the cemetery are reported to be suspended from 29 October through 3 November 2026. Ordinary winter hours are reported to resume on 4 November 2026.
What comes next
The same report also outlines a summer schedule from 28 March through 23 October 2027: 07:00–18:00 on weekdays and 07:00–13:00 on Sundays and public holidays.
Visitors planning a trip for the commemorations should use the 07:00–17:30 daily window from 28 October to 3 November, and check the City of Benevento's cemetery notice for any further updates before travelling.
