About Abbey of Sant'Antimo
Abbey of Sant'Antimo is a former Benedictine monastery sitting in a picture-perfect setting just about 10 km south of Montalcino, just below the medieval hamlet of Castelnuovo dell'Abate. It’s one of the most important examples of monastic architecture of the 13th century and by far the most important Romanesque building in southern Tuscany. The church was built around year 1100 and took the place of an older 9th century abbey. (Castelnuovo dell'Abate, Italy)
