Abbey of Our Lady of Montserrat, Manila

The Benedictine Abbey of Our Lady of Montserrat, also known as the Manila Abbey, is a Benedictine men's monastery located on Mendiola Street in Manila, Philippines. The monastery was founded by monks from Spain in 1895, in the final years of the Spanish colonial era in the Philippines. The shrine is dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary under the title of Our Lady of Montserrat. The resident monks, who belong to the Philippine Pro-Province of the Subiaco Cassinese Congregation (a part of the Benedictine Confederation), also operate San Beda University on the abbey's grounds.
