Chevetogne Abbey, Benedictine monastery in Ciney, Belgium
The monastery contains two distinct churches: a Latin church and an Eastern church decorated with extensive Byzantine frescoes from 1957.
Dom Lambert Beauduin established the initial community in 1925 following Pope Pius XI's directive to unite Catholic and Eastern Churches.
The monks maintain a collection of 100,000 volumes in their library and publish Irenikon, a journal focused on Christian unity.
The abbey welcomes visitors to participate in both Latin and Eastern Catholic services throughout the day.
Two separate groups of monks within the monastery conduct parallel liturgies: one following Western traditions and another following Byzantine rites.
