St. Scholastica's Abbey, commonly known as Subiaco Abbey (Italian: Abbazia di Santa Scolastica) is a Benedictine territorial abbey founded in the 6th century AD by Saint Benedict of Nursia. It was in one of the Subiaco caves that Benedict made his first hermitage. The monastery today gives its name to the Subiaco Congregation, a grouping of monasteries worldwide that makes up part of the Order of Saint Benedict. Also known as Monastero di San Benedetto.
