Where are we

The Convent is build on the top of one of the tree hills on which Bolsena lies. In the green and overlooking the lake, at a few hundred metres of het Church of the Eucharistic Miracle and the Basilica of S. Cristina, at a ten minute walk of the biggest vulcanic lake of Europe. Everything seems within reach: places of devotion, testimonies from antique civilization (Roman and Etruscan), nature (woods and springs).

Bolsena lies at 30 km north of Viterbo, along the 'via Cassia', the antique pilgrimspath (via Francigena).
