Monastery of San Pantaleone di Monte Faeta was a Cistercian monk abbey in Tuscany , Italy . It was located in Santa Maria del Giudice 9 km south of Lucca in the province of the same name .
history
In 1044, a St. Pantaleon's Church was built halfway up Monte Faeta, which Pope Innocent II gave to the Augustinian regular canons from Lucca in 1137 . In 1233 Pope Gregory IX decreed . that the abbot of the monastery of San Galgano should take possession of San Pantaleone and convert it into a Cistercian abbey. This initially met with resistance, but the Augustinians were soon removed and Giovanni was named as the first Cistercian abbot in 1236. The Cistercian monastery belonged to the filiation of the Clairvaux Primary Abbey . The monastery was considered not unpaid and was valued at 2,300 pounds in 1260. Around the year 1400 it fell into the coming years. The Cistercians left the monastery around 1440, whose goods were transferred to the Università dei Cappellani of the Lucca Cathedral.
