Chiesa di Sant'Anselmo all'Aventino e Badia Primaziale
Historic site · Ripa, Italy
A church which, with its attached monastery, forms the Badia Primaziale of the Benedictine order, on the Aventine, at piazza dei Cavalieri di Malta. The Divine Office is sung in Latin with traditional Gregorian chant, with daily Mass and monthly adoration. No source states its opening hours, so none are given here.
History
The Collegio's own site records that Sant'Anselmo is the seat of the Benedictine Confederation and holds the Curia of the Abbot Primate, and that about 90 monks and religious from over 30 countries live here, studying at the Ateneo or at other Roman universities. The Pontifical Athenaeum of Sant'Anselmo, built between 1892 and 1900, stands in the same complex.
