The monastery was inaugurated by the bishop mons. Bruno Foresti on 8 October 1988, but this is only the last act of a long history. In fact since 1620 a family of Bienno allocated a land with buildings and an income in order to realize a desire, long lived in Valle Camonica: the erection of a monastery, whose foundation was to be entrusted to the Poor Clares.

The Umbrian pilgrimage site of Assisi has produced two important personalities: "Santa CHIARA" also deserves to be honored alongside "San FRANCESCO". She lived at the same time as Francis: Clara was born in (or around) 1193 and died in 1253. Her general memorial day in the calendar of saints is the day of her death on August 11th for all major Christian denominations, but there are also regional or order-specific memorial days.
In addition to this monastery, which was entrusted to her patronage, there are two important places in Assisi itself to follow in her footsteps: The Church of the Holy Sepulchre in the center of Assisi (if you are interested, see komoot.com/de-de/highlight/361280 ), and the "San Damiano" monastery (see komoot.com/de-de/highlight/361272 ), located just outside the historic city walls.
