There are many varieties of roses there, surrounding a path that you can take a relaxing walk down on a nice day. The wine cellars underneath the monastery are an outstanding sight to see - they are the oldest cellars in Friuli, dating back to the 13th century, where they were used by Benedictine Monks to age their own wine. The convent offers spectacular views to the surrounding mountains, the valley below and the Friulian plains. Mass is held at 6:00pm on Sunday.
