Description
Former convent of Airola (BN)
Surrounded by greenery of a panoramic hill behind the city, the former convent of Airola represents a jewel of history and architecture whose origins date back to the last centuries of the first Christian millennium.
The complex, with a characteristic rectangular shape with two charming cloisters, is spread over three levels for a total area of about 2,200 square meters, framed by a private park of over 12,500 square meters.
The privileged location, historical richness and timeless charm make this property a unique opportunity, ideal for those who want to invest in an exclusive and charming setting.
Historic details:
The religious who inhabited and sanctified the monastery were first the Cluniacens (1033 - 1201), of which the Blessed Agàno is remembered; then the Commendators, so the Olivetans (1545 - 1788), who on the ruins of the first convent and the small church (there are remains in the basements) built the church and the current Monastic complex.
After the Napoleonic suppression, the possession passed to the state estate which, after about fifty years, gave the building to the Benedictines of Montevergine (1842), which remained there until the new suppression desired by the anti-clerical spirit of the neo-regno d'Italy (1866).
In 1882, after a mission preached in the city, the Monastery was purchased by the Passionists, with the help of generous benefactors, including the superior general Blessed Bernardo Silvestelli.
