The Benedictine Abbey of the village, is very famous for its manuscripts and library, and it hosts the well known Abadir Academy of Restoration. Moreover a lovely attraction of this charming village is the Spring Festival (Festa della Primavera) where monks honour a very old tradition by releasing all the tiny birds cared for during the winter, to celebrate the arrival of spring.
