Saint Meinrad Archabbey is a peaceful and spiritual place with beautiful grounds and the opportunity for prayer with the Benedictine monks. Founded in 1854, the Saint Meinrad Archabbey is one of only two archabbeys in the United States and one of 11 in the world. Today, more than 80 monks of this Benedictine community still live by the Rule of St. Benedict, and the motto ora et labora (pray and work).

One of the primary works of Saint Meinrad has been the education of future leaders of the Catholic Church. The monks operate a Seminary and School of Theology, which offers education and formation for priests, permanent deacons and lay ministers for the Roman Catholic Church.

Don't forget to visit Saint Meinrad Books and Gifts for religious and inspirational gifts, Bibles, books, and more. The Saint Meinrad Archabbey Guest House is located on site and available for out-of-town visitors.

Self-guided walking tours available; and group tours can be arranged with advance notice. Guests are welcome to attend Mass with the Monks. Please call for times.
