This is the only European website collecting essential information about what the monasteries of Europe have to offer.

This is a common European site presenting the monasteries spread out over all of Europe. The purpose is to bring the monasteries to the people. In order for all Christians and non-Christians to get accessible information of what the monasteries offer and why they exist. So that people might visit the monasteries and thus get to know God better.

We specialize in finding the rare balance between religion, consumer needs and curiosity.

What we monasteries might gain:

1. •More coherent online information about monasteries
   

2. •More visitors to monasteries and therefore better economy per house
   

3. •Enormous missionary potential, though hidden behind the retreat need of people
   

4. •Maybe a large vocation engine
   

5. •Internet is the media of youth, and youth can potentially give vitality to monasteries
   

6. •Could promote ecumenic sharing between Christians – common ground against non-religion, materialism and spiritual loss to Islam's growth in Europe
   

7. •The website could campaign more moral and less material life style
   

8. •More healthy, green and constructive holidays for people; ecotourism
   

9. •Closer to nature, anti-stress, away from cities
   

10. •Fresh attempt to combine Christian quality with modern technology
