Praglia Abbey Review

Great monastery where you should definitely take the lead. Like in another world.

Beautiful Benedictine abbey that rises near the Euganei mountains. It is possible to make guided visits in the company of a monk, who explains in detail not only the "physical" part of the place but also the various allegories and spiritual symbols present.
To visit the library there are specific dates and they are quite few, for this reason we were not able to access them. Next to the entrance there is a small shop selling religious and medicinal-herbal products. Overall it is a nice place to visit if you are around.

Beautiful Abbey located in a wonderful place among the Euganean in the Teolo area. Immersed in the greenery between faith and nature. Inside the guesthouse there is a fantastic shop of products made by the monks ... I recommend a visit. Have a good trip

I would add the possibility to the guest to be able to take a guided tour (a monk of spiritual reference ????) according to his motivations to spend days in the Monastery.
This should be, in some preliminary form, set before the entrance to be refined in presence.

A truly special place, to visit calmly enjoying the wonders explained by Father Wladimiro, a monk with boundless culture and sympathy. Too bad that time is running out, because the monks' shop offers their very special products .....

Splendid Benedictine Abbey at the foot of the Euganean Hills. Interesting guided tours are provided, inside the abbey at pre-established schedules which can be easily booked. Very nice is the point of sale of the medicinal products prepared by the Friars. The whole thing is definitely worth a visit.

Very beautiful, do not miss the guided tour of the monastery, you discover a world to the most unknown.
In the shop of products of the monastery you can find medicinal products and not very particular.

Pretty spots of earth with great views. Unfortunately completely overcrowded.

Wonderful place where you can listen to Gregorian chants.

Inside the abbazia there is a shop that sells the products of the monks. They are excellent and prices are affected

These places are all fantastic, for their simplicity, the wonderful natural reserve, the hospitality of the inhabitants, the tasty food. Veneto is a really beautiful region!

Very interesting free guided tour. The monk (no friar!) Who accompanied us inside the Praglia Abbey is very funny and amusing

Place of worship of silence and history! Surrounded by the green of the Euganean hills you can enjoy magical peace

Relaxing and excellent products.
Next time Gregorian Mass.

Little visited
Estate in excellent condition
Pacific Place

Place of great silence and serenity, fascinating immersed in the green and behind the Euganean hills, the Benedictine monks very good in explaining the life of the abbey, to visit absolutely.

The steps to the church are without a parapet, it seems very dangerous, better to keep children by the hand. The friars' shop has prohibitive prices, especially for wines, honey and body products. Very nice and kind the Argentine friar who guided us to the visit.

Found by chance returning from Abano Terme ... an oasis of quiet

An evocative place of prayer born as Abbey, it has become, over the centuries, a center of spirituality and aggregation for pilgrims from all over the world.

Sono rimasto scottato dalla non gentilezza dell abate e dal costo del vino,abbastanza esagerato. Non ce il WI FI e non prende il 3G

Too bad the visiting hours of the monastery were not posted! Anyway a place worth visiting! Maybe with a little more organization it would be 5 stars!

A place where you can find peace and serenity among the Euganean hills. The Benedictine monks guard this pearl where they produce their organic products and restore ancient manuscripts.

Very beautiful with an atmosphere of peace and tranquility. To visit.

Both the church and the monastery are of great interest. The Benedictine monks are excellent guides. The story in the interior are very interesting!

immersed in the countryside you can visit at fixed times. There is also a store that sells special products

Very beautifull! To get to know the history of the abbey do not miss the guided tour with the monks! You can also buy products (wine, cosmetics, liqueurs ...) made inside the abbey!

Despite the crowd on a public holiday, you can breathe peace and tranquility. The shop with medicinal herbs and much more is interesting

Ancient abbey perfectly preserved, historical place, to visit absolutely.

Sometimes you go to well-known places, even far away, overlooking the local "treasures" such as the Abbey of Praglia. I came here for a conference, so I saw little but I promised myself to come back for a quieter visit. Also worth seeing is the book restoration workshop, I think it is one of the best in the world.

It is a place of peace, serenity, welcoming, where one feels at peace with the whole world.

Very beautiful abbey, surrounded by nature, deserves the very touching friars mass, for those who want to there is also a shop with local products (wines, spices and more)

Because it is very beautiful and with excellent products

An ancient religious place where the friars work the land and produce wine, honey, jams, soaps and even spices and have their own shop where you can find and their products. You can also visit the convent which is very beautiful.

Beautiful interior frescoes, delicious products in the shop.

I am not a practicing person, I do not feel close to the church although I believe there is a God, an after, something before and beyond our earthly life but this place has really involved me, it breathes an air of history, of studies, of prayer , of loyalty, one is enveloped by the beauty of this incredible monastery, its cloisters, the old refectory, the chapter house, (unfortunately I could not see the Library which must be worth the visit alone, but in August it is closed) of the same country context of the Euganean hills, from which the monks, following the "ora et labora" draw with their work what is necessary for their subsistence, both consuming it and selling it. Visits are guided by the monks, times are found on the abbey site. On the other hand, my visit would have been much less significant without the sympathy and irony of Dom Vladimiro (and I recommend DOM, with the final M, as he stressed, because they are monks, not friars, not priests) . This is the largest Benedictine community in Italy. A wonderful place. I went with my 9-year-old daughter, whom she really enjoyed thanks to the way Dom Vladimiro involved her. She was the only child, but I believe that from 8/9 years upwards they are able to understand many things and appreciate. Really not to be missed.

An ancient Benedictine abbey, which has always been a destination for every visitor to the Euganean Hills. Excellent and well stocked even the adjoining shop, where you can find various types of items (also present), local products of high quality and really interesting books.

Beautiful place with a contiguous guest house. Natural products made by monks

Beautiful place of worship, where you can take guided tours and also buy local products, and from which you can also access a nice path to do on foot

Absolutely characteristic church and outside the characteristic stylistic features of the period. the

If you are interested in learning about aspects of monastic life, this Abbey is worth a visit

Great monastery in the middle of the vineyards in the nature park.
Monastic shop with partly homemade products, such as honey, jam, herbs, spices, essential oils, ...

Exceptional beauty, the father who guided us along the way, a person of culture and brilliant irony and of the highest level

Guided tour of little interest. You can see more on the internet

Suggestive Abbey, intriguing guided tour of Monaco. Spectacular library. Recommended
