Trappist Order

The Trappist Order is a Roman Catholic monastic community known for its strict adherence to prayer, silence, and communal living. Originating from the Cistercian monks in the 17th century, they dedicate themselves to a life of contemplation, work, and simplicity, aiming to live closely aligned with religious principles. Trappists often produce products like beer, cheese, and jams as part of their self-sustaining lifestyle, emphasizing integrity and craftsmanship. Their disciplined way of life seeks spiritual growth and service, embodying a balance of devotion, community, and manual labor.
