Monastery of the Amalfitani

The Amalfinon Monastery (Greek: Μονή των Αμαλφηνών, Latin: Monasterium Amalfitanorum) or Amalfion was the most prominent of the three former monasteries for Latin-speaking Christians on Mount Athos before the Great Schism. After the events of 1054, its affiliation with either Eastern Orthodox Church

or the Catholic Church has been subject of debate. It was located halfway between the Athonite monasteries of Great Lavra and Karakallou Monastery.
