Description:
Location: In the Valledacqua section in Acquasanta Terme, completely immersed in the peace and quiet of the countryside. This splendid Monastery, reborn after 1000 years, is in the hands of the Camaldolese nuns.
Structure: The cloistered life has returned on the ruins of an ancient abbey that belonged to the Benedictine monks of Farfa, who built it in 970 A.D. For many centuries, generations of monks observed their vows of silence here, in prayer and seeking God. In keeping with the Camaldolese style, the order welcomes guests and offers a unique opportunity to those seeking silent meditation and communication with God to share their prayers with the order, seeking true communion with themselves in an unspoiled natural environment. Singles and groups are welcome. During the weeks of prayer, guests are invited to share daily prayer services based on the Word of God and the Holy Liturgy with the religious community.
Rooms: The convent's guest house is open year-long, not only during Holy Weeks. Thirty-two rooms are available (14 singles and 18 double rooms), all with bath. Rooms for the disabled are also available.
Dining: In the Guest House refectory breakfast, lunch and dinner are served.
