It is listed on the National Register of Historical Places. HistoryExpansionTwo Benedictine monks were sent in 1886 from St. Vincent Archabbey in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, and traveled to Breckenridge, Colorado, to establish a monastic community in what was still frontier territory.[2] They went at the invitation of Joseph Projectus Machebeuf, then still the Vicar Apostolic for Colorado and Utah.[3] Their first foundation was the Priory of St. Mary in Boulder.[4] Other monks followed in ensuing years. The growth of the community led the community to move to Cañon City in 1924, where a larger monastery was built in the Gothic Revival style. The house was raised to the status of an abbey at that time, and it assumed a new name. A boarding school was opened at the abbey, and initial attempts were made at establishing a winery, which were not pursued at the time.[5] Like other religious communities in the United States, the abbey saw its numbers prosper during the 1950s and 1960s, only to see a steep decline begin after that. The abbey school was closed in 1985.[2] By the early 2000s, the community was composed of about 20 monks, mostly elderly.[6] In an effort to find a means of income for themselves, in the year 2000 the monks decided to return to the idea of planting a vineyard again. They entrusted the production to a professional viticulturist who began to produce wine the following year.[5] DeclineBy the year 2005, however, it was determined that the monastic community was no longer viable and, in a final chapter meeting, the monks voted to dissolve it.[1] They found homes for themselves in various other monasteries, and the abbey was closed the following year.[2] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.osb.org/amcass/foundations.html|work=The American-Cassinese Congregation|title=Directory of Houses|accessdate=26 February 2013}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.holycrossabbey.org/history.htm|work=Holy Cross Abbey|title=History}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.catholic-hierarchy.org/bishop/bmachj.html|work=Catholic Hierarchy|title=Bishop Joseph Projectus Machebeuf (Macheboeuf)}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.saintvincentarchabbey.org/about_us-historyviii|work=Saint Vincent Archabbey|title=About Us: The Wimmer Era|last=Fellner|first=Felix, O.S.B.|accessdate=26 February 2013}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.gocolorado.com/wineries/vineyards/holy-cross-abbey-old-habits-new-wines/|work=GoColorado.com|title=Holy Cross Abbey: Old Habits, New Wines|last=Bishop|first=Josh|accessdate=26 February 2013}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.sangres.com/colorado/fremont/holycrossabbey.htm#.US0AEIa4LTq|work=Sangres.com|title=Holy Cross Abbey|accessdate=26 February 2013}} External links
