Montecassino Abbey history starts very long ago, in 529 A.D when Saint benedict built it. It has been destroyed many times because of invasions and an earthquake, but the most famous time was the bombing during WWII in February 1994. It has been rebuilt, after the war and nowadays you can visit the inside in all its glory.
