Monastère Saint-Benoît de Brignoles

Brignoles, France

The Monastère Saint-Benoît is an independent anglophone Catholic Benedictine monastery located in the commune of Brignoles, 46 kilometres (29 mi) from Toulon, France. The Bishop of Fréjus-Toulon established the monastery in 2011. The current location was purchased in 2020. The Association was suppressed in June 2022 after two members of the community were ordained priest and deacon without the bishop's knowledge. The monastery is still open and the monks have indicated they intend to continue their life of prayer, study and work, regardless of the outcome.
