★ ★ ★ ★ ★ What a place! The drive up the hill is well paved but steep in places (at least six hairpin bends) but the views are outstanding and inside the Abbey the artwork and architecture are truly special. If there is one thing to see in Montecassino this is it.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The drive up was surreal. The road was so narrow and close to the edge but the view was stunning. The abbey itself was stunning. Inside it was cool despite being 30 degrees outside. From the balcony, you can see a huge cross on the hillside of another mountain (I believe this is a Polish cemetery)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The most beautiful, impressive and well kept Benedict abbey, where St Benedict spent all of his life, is the architectural and spiritual experience that should be in any body's bucket list

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Gorgeous place restored after WWII, the abbey has a long and interesting history. It was a peaceful and relaxing visit. Unfortunately, the museum was closed.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Magical abbey on top of the mountain in Cassino. Don't try to walk up there you will fail even if you have powerful calf muscles and never skip leg day. The monastery was founded by St. Benedict who famously spit one of the sickest verses of the time "ora et labora". Was sacked a few times in history and the allies super bombed it in 44' but it had been rebuilt since. There is also a polish cemetery near by.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Can't not stop off here. Wonderfully kept, beautiful basilica and gardens and very interesting museum. Can't believe that a place like this has free entrance €3 for the car park, €6 for the museum).
