Monastero di Santa Scolastica, Subiaco

历史

Disenchanted with Rome’s decadence, St. Benedetto left the city in the early
part of the 6th century and lived as a hermit in a cave above Subiaco. The cave (Sacro Speco) that the saint inhabited for three years was later developed in Cistercian Gothic style and exists today as a stunning edifice built into the side of the cliff. Many of St. Benedetto’s followers joined him and over the years
built thirteen monasteries. Two of the thirteen survived, Santa Scolastica and San Benedetto.
