Saint Hugh's Charterhouse (Carthusian Monastery)

General Info

Company name: Saint Hugh's Charterhouse (Carthusian Monastery)

Description: “To the praise of God’s glory, Christ, the Father’s Word, has from the beginning chosen certain men through the Holy Spirit, in order to lead them into solitude and unite them to himself in intimate love. In obedience to such a call, Master Bruno (“a man of always joyful countenance”), with six companions, entered the desert of Chartreuse, in the year of the Lord 1084, and settled there. Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, they and their successors, learning from experience, developed their own particular style of hermit life, which was handed down to succeeding generations, not by the written word, but by example.” (Prologue to the Statutes of the Carthusian Order)
