House of spirituality and hospitality MAGUZZANO ABBEY - OPERA DON CALABRIA in Lonato (Brescia)
66 posti letto









Description
The Abbey of Maguzzano stands on a moraine hill in the municipality of Lonato, from which you can admire a picturesque panorama of Lake Garda and the surrounding hills and mountains.
The Abbey has a thousand-year history characterized by alternating prosperous times and moments of decadence and abandonment, from which, however, it always managed to be reborn.
The current architectural complex, next to the parish church of Santa Maria Assunta, was built in 1493-96 by the Benedictine friars of the Polirone Abbey in San Benedetto Po (Mantua). Its origins, however, are much older. In fact, the first Benedictine abbey dates back to the 9th century and stood near the Via Gallica, the important Roman road that connected Turin with Aquileia.
The Abbey, through its Reception House, offers everyone the possibility of staying for short, medium and long periods of time, in order to find a place of peace and tranquility.
The abbey offers the possibility of using rooms for small or large groups.
There are two conference rooms (120 and 80 seats) with projector and amplification system.
