A 17th-century monastery in northern Italy where recently canonized St. Carlo Acutis received his first Communion was ravaged by a massive fire.
According to Italian news outlet Rai News, the fire broke out on October 11 at the Bernaga Monastery, located in the La Valletta Brianza municipality in the Lombardy region.
- The fire spread rapidly through the monastery, primarily constructed of wood, and suffered significant damage.
- Investigations are ongoing, with the mayor of La Valletta Brianza, Marco Panzeri, suspecting a short circuit as the possible cause, as reported by Rai News.
