Quart mater misericordiae monastery

Situated in a prime location in the vicinity of the city of Aosta, about eight kilometers away, stands the Monastery of Contemplative Life, a true jewel set among the high peaks of the Aosta Valley mountains.
This place of peace and spirituality sits at an altitude of nearly 750 meters, offering a truly enviable panoramic view that enchants visitors and residents alike.
Design and Construction Built in 1989, the monastery is the brainchild of distinguished Turin architects Gabetti and d’Isola.
Known for their innovative approach, they were able to create a work that stands out not only for its functionality but also for its harmony with the local urban fabric.
The design includes a roof of “lose”-typical stone slabs used in local construction-and exposed stone walls, elements that emphasize a deep respect for the Aosta Valley architectural tradition.
A Spiritual Refuge Contemplative Life and Spiritual Retreat The monastery offers an environment of quiet and reflection, ideal for those seeking a spiritual retreat away from the daily hustle and bustle.
Here, monks and nuns devote their lives to prayer and meditation, following a routine that promotes inner peace and spiritual development.
Visitors and pilgrims find in this place a unique opportunity to reflect and reconnect with themselves.
Openness to the Community Despite its vocation for seclusion and contemplation, the monastery is open to the community with shared prayer times and opportunities to meet, allowing everyone to experience the tranquility and spirituality of the place.
This aspect makes the monastery an important spiritual reference point for the city of Aosta and the entire region.
