Views from the Benedictine Cloister attached to the Monreale Cathedral

The Cloister was completed around 1200 CE. The columns lining the walkways have carved capitals with stories from the old and new testaments. The intention was for the Monks to meditate on those stories as they moved through the Cloister.
