Embark on a day-long journey from Rome to delve into the life of St. Benedict. Accompanied by your own personal driver-guide, you’ll make your way to the Monastery of St. Benedict, located in Subacio. This is where you’ll encounter medieval mural paintings and the Sacro Speco, the place where the saint chose a hermit’s existence. Spend time in prayer in the holy cave, then track the route of St. Benedict’s life to the Montecassino Abbey. Here, imbibe in the narrative of the saint’s latter years and those fraught times of war that the abbey experienced prior to your return to Rome.
