Comment

The Way of St Benedict is 300 Km from Benedict's birthplace at Norcia (Nursia) in Umbria to Subiaco (in the Province of Rome) where he lived first as a hermit, then as Abbot of a community, and finally to Monte Cassino, where Benedict and his sister St Scholastica are buried. The Abbey was reconstructed after its destruction in WWII, and its anniversary will be celebrated in 2029. The guide includes a short section for cyclists.
Donated by the Office of the Abbot-Primate of the Benedictines.
