Water point 💧 present in front of the abbey... very suggestive place!

Cistercian monks are still present in this wonderful Gothic abbey located along the path of Saint Benedict.

It was built in 1203 on the ruins of the ancient Roman municipality called Cereatae. It is located in the municipality of Veroli. The monks manage the pharmacy, the liquor store, the restoration of books, the library and the archaeological museum.

The Casamari Abbey, located between Frosinone and Sora, is one of the most significant examples of Gothic-Burgundian architecture in Italy. Founded in 1005 by a Benedictine community, it passed to the Cistercians in 1152. The majestic church, dedicated to the Virgin of the Assumption and Saints John and Paul, was consecrated in 1217. Even today, the Cistercians live in this historic place, bearing witness to the solidity of their community and the importance of the abbey in the history of architecture in Lazio.

It rises to 594m on the Ernici Mountains. At the top of the village there is the ancient acropolis. Famous is the Monastery of Sant'Erasmo, now transformed into a hotel.

Frosinone is the largest city in the Latina Valley, an important communication route in Lazio between Rome and Naples which until the nineteenth century was a village with a rural vocation, while since the twentieth century it has become an important industrial and commercial center.

The abbey is a minor basilica consecrated in 1217 in Cistercian Gothic style. A beautiful monument to visit!

One of the most stylistically significant abbeys in Italy and therefore certainly worth visiting is the Casamari Abbey, located in the far eastern territory of the municipality of Veroli, along the Via Mària, halfway between Frosinone and Sora. It stands out, imposing and solitary, close to a rocky hill bordered by the Amaseno stream, which in ancient times marked the border between the Ernici and the Volsci, at 300 meters above sea level. It was built on the ruins of the ancient Roman municipality of Cereatae Marianae (of which the aqueduct that served it is still visible), so named in honor of the goddess Ceres, to whom the place was consecrated, and of the valiant Roman general, Caius Marius, who he was born here and spent the first years of his youth.
