Monastery Saints Peter and Paul

Welcome to the site of the Monastery of SS. Peter and Paul. "Listen, oh son...".
This is how St. Benedict begins his monastic Rule, but first of all we look at a site...
Our wish is to be able to reach, through this tool, from vision to listening, the most suitable place for a real encounter.
- The brothers of the community -

The Monastery of Saints Peter and Paul in Germagno is a Benedictine priory of the Sublacense-Cassinese Congregation and was founded in 1971.
Located on the slopes of Mount Massone, it leans out - as if from a natural balcony - over Lake Orta.

The community is currently made up of nine brother monks joined by seven "brothers and sisters in the world". Near the monastery also lives a sister who tries to make her the monastic spirit of the community.

Despite the differences that an original vocation imposes, we all try to bear witness to a single "community", passionate about the good of each of its members, which finds itself committed to living according to the prospects of that good zeal which Benedict describes in chapter 72 of the his Rule.
