MONTECASSINO ABBEY


Considered to be the oldest and most famous of monasteries in Europe, Montecassino Abbey was founded in 529 AD by Saint Benedict as a simple chapel built on top of the ancient pagan Temple of Apollo .

Over the centuries, this once simple chapel grew and evolved into a beacon of knowledge and culture. The Medieval Era was the abbey's “ golden age ” when monks faithfully practiced and advanced the art of healing and medicine , music and philosophy . They established the school of medicine in Salerno and translated ancient Latin and Greek works that became famous worldwide.

Just as the proverbial ancient oak, broken by storms, yet tenaciously continued to grow stronger than before, the monastery too suffered multiple significant destructions throughout its history.

In 577 AD the monastery was invaded and destroyed by the Lombards . In 883 it was sacked and burned by the Saracens , left in a state of abandonment. In 1349 it was destroyed during an earthquake, and in 1944 it was severely bombed during the final stage of WWII .

Each time determined followers and devoted monks rebuilt the monastery even more formidable than previously and enriched it with incredible art, mosaics, and precious enamels.

After its final destruction in WWII, the monastery was rebuilt to its prior Medieval Era splendor according to the ancient architectural plans.

As you enter the monastery you will be surprised by its spacious cloisters , perfect archways , and balustraded balconies overlooking the stunning valley.

The center of the main Bramante cloister boasts an octagonal well and a wide staircase flanked by a statue of Saint Benedict and his sister Saint Scholastica .

Below the altar is the 16th-century crypt carved into the rock of the hill and adorned with precious mosaics.
