EDITORS COMMENTS
Citeaux Abbey, France: A Glance into the Past of Monastic Life and Saintly Foundations The serene and picturesque landscape of Citeaux Abbey, located near Beaune in the heart of Burgundy, France, invites us to take a journey back in time. Founded in 1098 by Robert of Molesme, this Cistercian monastery holds a rich historical significance as one of the earliest and most influential monasteries of the Cistercian Order. Robert, who later became Saint Robert of Molesme, sought to revive the monastic spirit by returning to the original Benedictine Rule, emphasizing manual labor, self-sufficiency, and a simple lifestyle. The foundation of Citeaux Abbey marked the beginning of a new monastic movement that would spread throughout Europe and beyond. The 19th-century print showcases the architectural grandeur and tranquility of the abbey, with its intricately designed buildings and lush gardens. The monks' lives were centered around prayer, work, and the pursuit of spiritual growth. The abbey's self-sufficient farm, known as a grange, provided for the monks' needs and allowed them to live in accordance with their principles. The Citeaux Abbey's influence extended far beyond its walls, as it gave birth to numerous daughter houses, including the famous Clairvaux Abbey, founded by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux. The Cistercian Order's monastic reforms played a crucial role in the spread of Christianity throughout Europe during the Middle Ages. As we gaze upon this image of Citeaux Abbey, we are transported back to a time when spirituality, community, and the pursuit of knowledge were at the heart of daily life. The abbey stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of Robert of Molesme and the Cistercian Order, inspiring us to reflect on the importance of faith, tradition, and the power of community in shaping our world.
