Abadía del Niño Dios

Abadía del Niño Dios, Victoria, Entre Ríos Province, Argentina, is a Benedictine monastery of the Cono-Sur Congregation.

Abadía del Niño Dios was founded by monks from the Abbey of Belloc on August 30, 1899, becoming the first Benedictine monastery in Hispanic America.

Since then, the community has made a number of foundations in the Cono Sur Region, including the monasteries of Cristo Rey (Tucumán, Argentina) and Pascua (Canelones, Uruguay).

The monks also staff a training college that offers degrees in a number of fields, including philosophy, theology, and agricultural sciences.

The monks of Abadía del Niño Dios are under the leadership of Abbot Fr Carlos Martín Oberti, who is assisted in his duties by Prior Francisco José Robles.
