Saint Meinrad Archabbey was founded in 1854 by monks of the Abbey of Einsiedeln in Switzerland. Today, the 100 monks of this Benedictine community still live by the Rule of St. Benedict, and with the motto of ora et labora (prayer and work).
One of the primary works of Saint Meinrad has been the education of future leaders of the Catholic Church. The School of Theology provides education and formation for priests, permanent deacons and lay ministers.
Other works of Saint Meinrad include Abbey Press, which markets Christian gifts, books and cards; and Abbey Caskets, which offers handcrafted wood caskets and cremation urns directly to the public.
The Archabbey is always open to visitors. Come visit us!
