About Abbey of the Santissima Trinità
The Abbey of the Santissima Trinità at Venosa grew from an early church into a major Benedictine monastery. Under Norman rule in the eleventh century it became burial place of several leaders of the Hauteville family, and an unfinished new church was begun beside the older one. It served as a religious and dynastic center of Norman southern Italy.
