Order of St. Benedict Waegwan Abbey (성베네딕도회 왜관수도원)
- Tel :
The Order of St. Benedict Waegwan Abbey, established by monks from the German Order of St. Benedict, serves as a sanctuary of peace and spirituality in South Korea. These monks sought refuge during the Korean War, fleeing religious persecution following the closure of the Abbey of the Holy Cross at Yenki in Manchuria and Tokwon Abbey in North Korea. In adherence to the teachings and spirit of St. Benedict, the monks at Waegwan Abbey dedicate themselves to a life of work and prayer, actively participating in Catholic evangelization and social work. Additionally, they contribute to the community through various initiatives, including publishing and printing at Bundo Book, managing farms, and running educational projects.
