Monastery Immaculate Conception
Monastery Immaculate Conception, Benedictine abbey in Ferdinand, United States
The Monastery Immaculate Conception features a restored Romanesque dome that rises 87 feet from the floor with a diameter of 32.5 feet.
Four Benedictine sisters established the monastery in 1867 to provide education for the children of local settlers in Ferdinand, Indiana.
The chapel contains 89 angels depicted through stained glass windows, statues, and carvings, with German artisans creating the hand-carved wooden pews.
Tours operate Tuesday through Friday at 10:00, 11:00, 13:00, and 14:00, while weekend visits occur at 13:00 and 14:00.
The sisters maintain multiple roles including teachers, social workers, nurses, attorneys, chaplains, and librarians while operating their own bakery.
