Guarcino. Monastery of the Augustinian Sisters

The monastery of the Augustinian Sisters in Guarcino dates back to 1800 and was founded by the Franciscans.

Today it is governed by the Augustinian Sisters and is a retreat and meditation centre for those who want to get away and live in the peace of the mountains in a spiritual place with a special atmosphere.

Inside, there is woodwork in cherry wood and a walnut choir and sacristy and some good nineteenth-century paintings.
