DIOTISALVI

One of my most exciting discoveries in the region. The ceiling of this small, 14th century monastery is decorates with small painted wooden elements showing scenes from everyday life, religion and imaginary beings. There is a short video played in of the side rooms that explains about these, I highly recommend to start with that as there is no other explanation given and might be hard to understand what you see there. Also visit the church with 5th centiry baptistry!

It’s small but beautiful. Did not mind to pay 7 euro entrance fee

The cloister was very interesting, but considering the 6€ of ticket, the people working there could be more attentive... For example, saying than in a few minutes an included explanation would start... Our experience was seeing by ourselves the cloister and when we were interested in the baptistery, then the guy said to us "run because my colleague is about to finish her explanation there" and when we arrived, we were quite ignored. Curiously, she was the same to sell us the tickets. Sincerely, you can go for free to the cathedral and see the baptistery from a glass door (paying or not). We understand that the cloister's gem needs maintenance and they make us pay a ticket, but I am not sure if that price is worthy.

This is an old monastery. For 6 euros you could wander around inside, but it is not too interesting.

A place of wonder, peace and serenity. Well worth a visit.

Refusing entry to a 3 year old to use the bathroom. Incredibly bad

Klein, goed bewaard gebleven klooster met een bijzonder rijke geschiedenis en unieke schilderijtjes die het plafond sieren. Leuk om te bezoeken!

Venus visiter cette belle cathédrale romane, nous avons découvert ce magnifique cloître atypique à 2 niveaux. Le plafond du RDC est en bois avec les planches situées entre les solives qui sont peintes de scènes de bestiaires fantastiques. A voir absolument.
