Description


La certosa di Farneta è una monastero di Lucca che si trova nella località omonima Storia e descrizione Il primitivo nucleo, costruito alla metà del XIV secolo, venne modificato nel XVII secolo; ai primi del Novecento fu più che raddoppiato per ospitare la comunità della Grande Chartreuse, espulsa dalla Francia. La chiesa, consacrata nel 1358, mostra l'aspetto assunto dopo i rifacimenti della fine del Seicento. La decorazione pittorica ad affresco di Stefano Cassiani, detto il Certosino, ricopre tutte le pareti; una grande edicola marmorea inquadra la Discesa dello Spirito Santo. Adiacenti alla chiesa si trovano il chiostro piccolo e la sala capitolare, dove è conservata un'Annunciazione seicentesca. Attorno al Chiostro Grande sono disposte le celle dei monaci, vere e proprie casette, separate le une dalle altre. La Certosa non è visitabile. Onorificenze Medaglia d'oro al Merito Civile « Comunità  conventuale sempre occupata nel soccorso dei più deboli, durante l'ultimo conflitto mondiale, con spirito cristiano ed encomiabile virtù civile, si prodigava offrendo aiuto ai perseguitati politici, agli ebrei e a quanti sfuggivano ai rastrellamenti. Subiva la feroce rappresaglia da parte dei soldati tedeschi che pure aveva accolto, sacrificando la vita di numerosi suoi certosini, separati dai confratelli, deportati e dispersi. Nobile esempio di grande spirito di sacrificio e di umana solidarietà .» 1943/1944 Lucca The Charterhouse of Farneta is a monastery of Lucca, which is located in the homonymous History and Description The primitive core, built in the middle of the fourteenth century, was remodeled in the seventeenth century to the early twentieth century was more than doubled to accommodate the community of Grande Chartreuse, expelled from France. The church, consecrated in 1358, shows the appearance taken with remakes of the late seventeenth century. The fresco paintings of Stephen Cassiani, says the Carthusian, covering all the walls and a large marble shrine fits the Descent of the Holy Spirit. Adjacent to the church has a small cloister and chapter house, where it is preserved seventeenth-century Annunciation. Around the Great Cloister are arranged cells of monks, real houses, separated from each other. The Charterhouse is not open. Honours Gold Medal for Civil Merit "monastic community always busy in helping the most vulnerable during the Second World War, with the Christian spirit and commendable civic virtue, was lavish offering help to victims of political persecution, the Jews and those who escaped the raids. Suffered the brutal reprisals by the German soldiers who had also accepted, sacrificing his life for many Carthusians, separated from their brothers, displaced and dispersed. Noble example of the great spirit of sacrifice and human solidarity.

Such a long and rich history. When the first permanent settlement was founded in North America by the Spanish in Florida this church was already over two hundred years old. Such a legacy you have superbly captured. Una e ricca storia così lunga. Quando il primo insediamento fu fondato nel Nord America dagli spagnoli in Florida, questa chiesa è stata già più di duecento anni. Tale patrimonio si superbamente catturata.
