In the ATLAS O.S.B. you can find all monasteries of the Benedictine Confederation throughout the world; over 1200 addresses of monks, nuns and sisters.

foreword

Thirty years after the first edition of the ATLAS OSB, the Benedictine Confederation, ever more present in the world, is participating in the growing network of communication by way of http://atlas.osb-international.info/. There are many webmasters among our monks, nuns and sisters. By means of a password, each monastery has access to its own data, which can therefore be updated online in various languages and downloaded by every user. The printed text is merely a still in a moving picture. In the online version you can find the exact location of each monastery by way of up to three maps. Warm thanks to those who worked on this project: their names are listed in the index. Rome, 11 July 2004 + Notker Wolf O.S.B. Abbot Primate
