Abbazia di Santa Maria, Castelnuovo di Farfa

历史

The structure’s strategic importance insured that it received papal privileges. It was also protected by Charlemagne who declared it an imperial abbey. Late in the 9th-century, it was occupied by the Saracens, whose presence caused a temporary decline. The abbey reflowered under Abbot Ugo I (997-1037) and was of great importance in the Middle Ages, becoming the site of a famous scriptorium. The abbey’s prominence waxed and waned over the ensuing centuries including closure during the suppression of 1862.
