The abbey was founded in 1011 by S. Alferio, a Salerno native who trained in Cluny. Under the third abbot, St. Peter became the center of a large Congregation, the Ordo Cavensis. The first abbots were distinguished for their holiness: the first four were recognized as saints, another eight, blessed.
Elevated to a bishopric in 1394, from 1431 to 1497 it was entrusted to commendatory cardinals, who impoverished it of monks and substances, so that in 1497 it was aggregated to the Congregation of S. Giustina of Padua.
In the century XVIII the church and some parts of the abbey were rebuilt or enlarged.
In 1844, D. Giuseppe Serra and D. Rudesindo Salvado, Spanish monks who joined in Cava, left for Australia as missionaries and founded the abbey of Nuova Norcia.
Under the suppression law of 1866, the abbey was declared a national monument and entrusted to the abbot for safekeeping. Then the monks opened a lay college and began studies and publications of the archive. These activities continued into the twentieth century. Neg

October 1, 2024,Dalla Badia di Cava al Santuario dell'Avvocata A.R.
Heartfelt thanks to @"il Viandante Dei Dilettanti" for guiding me, Peppe, Marco and Luisa in this splendid and beautiful adventure that is the ascent to the Avvocata. I attach a very personal reflection of mine for the joy of having returned after so many years on this path to fully enjoy its uniqueness.

Departure and return from the car park located near the abbey of the SS. Trinity. Passing through Capo d'acqua and Cappella Vecchia, we head towards Monte dell'Avvocata, overlooking the respective Sanctuary. From here it is possible to admire splendid panoramas of some mountain ranges, the Gulf of Salerno and the Amalfi peninsula.
Following the path we go down, heading towards …

A wonderful day in late December 2025 in the Lattari Mountains, along the Amalfi/Sorrento coast, with truly evocative views. With @Giacomo Alfano, who has been passionate about hiking for a couple of months, I set off by car at 6:15 to reach the Abbey of Cava dè Tirreni, where many trails depart, including the CAI 300, Alta Via dei Monti …

I had been missing from Avvocata for 10 years.
I found a bit of news.
There is little to describe because the route is known all over the world.


I had never been to the top of Avvocata mountain, very beautiful. To get there you have to walk mainly on rock and it is a nice ring of a couple …

Taking the direction Santuario dell'Avvocata and following the well-marked CAI 300 path, you reach Capodacqua.
On the way out, the path is very simple and practicable. It does not present particular difficulties. Deviating from the main path, at Capodacqua, we reach the New …

Excursion from Dragonea in the direction of Avvoccata, or rather intention, as this time I went with my mother who, not being trained, gave up early. During the journey I also met a beautiful viper, unfortunately obviously killed with a club, in addition to having taken a quick look at the path of the state-owned mountains (practically after 100 metres …
