Before you arrive

A few things
to know.

Our monastery is a place of prayer and contemplation. Please help preserve the quiet atmosphere, and contact us if you are unsure about visiting arrangements.

Can I join public prayer?

Yes. The monastery invites the public to share in the published prayer schedule. Confirm any changes before travelling, especially on weekends and special occasions.

Can I stay overnight?

Overnight reservations are temporarily unavailable while the hospitality suites accommodate evacuated monks from New Camaldoli. See our retreat page for the full update.

What should I expect?

A gentle, contemplative atmosphere, with respect for silence and the community’s rhythm of prayer. For access to the grounds outside public prayer, please arrange your visit with the monastery.

What about access or mobility needs?
