Steve Bannon's former stomping grounds.

The Certosa (Charterhouse) of Trisulti, Steve Bannon's former stomping grounds. 

At first the Benedictine abbey was founded on the site in 996 by Saint Dominic Abbot; some remains can be seen today not far from the current building. The latter was erected starting from 1204 on a more accessible location by order of Pope Innocent III who assigned it to the Carthusians. The abbey's church, dedicated to Saint Bartholomew, was consecrated in 1211.  

The complex was enlarged and modified several times in the following centuries.   The current appearance dates from an essentially a Baroque restoration.   In 1947 the monastery was taken over by the Cistercian Congregation of Casamari Abbey and continues as a Cistercian monastery.  

In 2018 the former White House Chief Strategist, Steve Bannon announced plans to establish an academy in the charterhouse.   The "Dignatatis Humanae Institute", founded by Benjamin Harnwell, who is a European associate of Bannon, had its rights to use the former monastery revoked by the Italian government after bills were not paid.

And how interesting that last year Giorgia Meloni, an admirer of Trump, was elected as Italy's Prime Minister...
