Monastero dei Santi Gervasio e Protasio

Monastero dei Santi Gervasio e Protasio, Cistercian monastery in San Giacomo di Veglia, Italy.

The Monastero dei Santi Gervasio e Protasio occupies two facing barchesse of the former villa Calbo Crotta in San Giacomo di Veglia, bought with a legacy in 1909. Round arches on the inner fronts are separated by Doric half-columns under a broad entablature, with small rectangular attic windows that turn oval on the short street sides. The buildings are attributed to Giorgio Massari for their resemblance to the Barcon of Vedelago.

Baldovino, dean of the Belluno chapter, donated the church of Saints Gervasius and Protasius to donna Acega on 13 May 1212 in exchange for a pound of incense for the cathedral on Saint Martin's feast. In 1379 a papal bull of Urban IV ceded the monastery to Follina Abbey. A 1493 fire nearly destroyed it, and Napoleonic edicts suppressed it from 1810 to 1818. In 1909 the last nuns moved to two arcaded barchesse at San Giacomo di Veglia.

The monastery is named after Saints Gervasius and Protasius, to whom the church in Belluno was dedicated when Baldovino, dean of the cathedral chapter, transferred it to donna Acega on 13 May 1212 in exchange for a pound of incense for the cathedral on Saint Martin's feast. Tradition holds that the two saints once appeared at night and put to flight two young men who meant to attack the nuns in their dormitory; two small paintings of the patrons still mark the spot. The community remains active in the life of the parish.

The monastery sits in a quiet area on the outskirts, accessible by foot or car. Visitors should expect modest facilities and practice respectful behavior toward the active community.

The monastery originally stood in Belluno before being relocated to its present location due to various challenges. This move over a century ago makes it a place that preserved its historical roots in a different location.
