Tioumliline, Benedictine monastery in Ifrane Province, Morocco.

The stone buildings of Tioumliline Monastery stand at the edge of a Middle Atlas forest, where Barbary macaques roam through the remaining structures.

Founded in 1952 by twenty monks from En-Calcat Abbey, the monastery operated until 1968 when economic difficulties and governmental pressures led to its closure.

The monastery facilitated interfaith dialogues through international meetings, hosting 850 participants from various religious backgrounds after Morocco gained independence in 1956.

Local guide Saleh Boudaoud conducts four-hour hiking excursions from the monastery through the surrounding forest for 200 dirhams per person.

The monastery site served as a filming location for the 2010 film 'Of Gods and Men' and maintains its original church structure among the ruins.

Location: Ifrane Province
