Certosa di Pavia Gra-Car (Gratiarum Chartusia
la Certosa delle Grazie) is a monastery and
complex in Lombardy, northern Italy, situated
near a small town of the same name in the
Province of Pavia, 8 km north of Pavia. Built in
1396-1495, it was once located on the border of a
large hunting park belonging to the Visconti
family of Milan, of which today only scattered
parts remain. It is one of the largest
monasteries in Italy. All over the monastery
you'll find the Gra-Car sign, designating the
original name of the Charterhouse of Pavia
(Gratiarum Chartusia, Charterhouse of the
Graces). Certosa is the Italian name for a house
of the cloistered monastic order of Carthusians
founded by St. Bruno in 1044 at Grande
Chartreuse. The Certosa is renowned for the
exuberance of its architecture, in both the
Gothic and Renaissance styles, and for its
collection of artworks which are particularly
representative of the region.
