Astino Monastery, Romanesque monastery in Bergamo, Italy

The monastery complex features a church with three altars, including the main altar and those dedicated to Saint Martin and the Evangelists.

Founded in 1070 by Vallombrosian monks led by Bertario, the monastery established the Hospital of the Holy Sepulcher and provided support for poor people.

The refectory contains a restored Last Supper painting created by Florentine artist Alessandro Allori, which returned to its original location after restoration.

The monastery grounds include extensive agricultural fields that demonstrate modern biodiversity practices and sustainable farming methods in the present day.

The complex includes a prominent southwestern tower that rises above the valley, completed during the late 16th century renovations.
