    The Abbey of Montecassino, founded by San Benedetto da Norcia in 529 AD. C., is the oldest monastery in Italy together with the monastery of Santa Scolastica. The abbey is one of the most important places of worship in Lazio and Italy and can be defined as the cradle of Western monasticism.

    The Montecassino monastery is the main monastery of the Benedictines, located in the province of Frosinone in Italy. It was built by Benedetto da Norcia in 529. Montecassino is considered one of the most important spiritual centers of the Middle Ages. Benedict's bones are buried in the crypt, protected by massive walls.

    It is the destination of the evocative Cammino di San Benedetto which leads from his hometown of Norcia to the abbey of Montecassino which houses his tomb, passing through Subiaco where the Saint lived for a long time and where the monastery of Santa Scolastica and that of the Sacro Speco are located.
