Description

"Idleness is the enemy of the soul, and therefore the brothers at certain times must be engaged in manual work, at others in divine reading".

St. Benedict. Storytelling of photographic art, dedicated to manual work. The Benedictine monks produced BEER because they were afraid that wine was not enough for everyone and they also had cereals of all kinds, in particular HOP (cereal specifically for beer).

The Monks owned vast land assets, improved the craft techniques and improved the cultivation systems with:

sprinklers, fertilizers and land and forest care. The Plow was a very useful tool (which made furrows in the worked earth) and they used animals such as oxen or horses to pull it, they had also perfected some working techniques. Like the GIOGO (old technique) which consisted of putting a wooden bar behind the neck of an animal, but it was dangerous because the animal could breathe badly, while the new method was called HARNESS which consisted in placing a rigid and padded collar on the shoulders of the animal which allowed to use all the strength and all the weight.

A very important invention was the HOOF LOCK in which a curved iron was taken and nailed to the nail. Another production of the Monks was CHEESE due to the large amount of milk and their method of preservation such as seasoning and salting. From the monks we have also received other inventions such as: parliament, secret vote (Cistercian monks), clocks, new drugs, Dutch dams, a new type of wheel, musical notes, polders, fairs, beekeeping, forestry , italics, water meadows, botany, wax, ink ".
