This Monastery, now an asylum and home to the wealthy, was hardly brimming with occupants when the unlikely resident, Vincent Gogh, arrived. The fortunate circumstance granted him not only a cozy room on the second floor for his slumbering, but also a ground-floor studio for his brilliant work. And oh, what work it was! Among his creations, 'The Starry Night' took the limelight, a masterpiece that whispers a tale of his time spent within the confines of the monastery walls.
