The Camaldolese Order (a Benedictine monastic order of pontifical right founded by Saint Romuald of Ravenna in 1012) was responsible for the creation of this monastery on the island of Wigry. This congregation settled here in 1668.

After the Third Partition of Poland in 1796, the Prussian authorities confiscated the Camaldolese estates, and in 1800, the monks were expelled from Wigry. The buildings subsequently suffered extensive damage, particularly during World War II. It was only after the conflict that reconstruction of the monastery began. In 1999, the Diocese of Wigry hosted Pope John Paul II. A small museum is dedicated to him.

Possibility of overnight stay and spiritual renewal in the monastery.

A place where it is worth stopping for a moment in the daily rush and devoting yourself to reflection and reflection.
