Monastery of Our Lady of Novy Dvur
Bohemia
Completed June 2009
Following completion of the cloister, this second major phase of the Novy Dvur project creates a self-contained complex of accommodation for visiting priests and the families of the community within an existing vaulted sheep-byre. The new architecture allows the monastery to honour certain obligations of hospitality with minimal disruption to the community’s daily life of prayer and work.
