Originally founded in 1136 by monks from Rein near Graz, the Cistercian Abbey at Stična is one of the earliest Cistercian monasteries and the only European monument of its kind with so many preserved architectural elements (a church and a cloister). It served as the religious, ecclesiastic, cultural and economic centre of Carniola up to the reforms of Joseph II von Habsburg in 1784, when all monasteries were closed by decree. The white monks only came back to Stična in 1898. | Originally founded in 1136 by monks from Rein near Graz, the Cistercian Abbey at Stična is one of the earliest Cistercian monasteries and the only European monument of its kind with so many preserved architectural elements (a church and a cloister).

The abbey's oldest architecture belongs to the period of the High Romanesque but some original forms resemble the Early Romanesque style from central France, as this territory used to be under the direct influence of Cluny II. Some parts of the abbey were expanded between the late 16th and mid 18th centuries.
In 1991 the Museum of Christianity in Slovenia was opened within the abbey to preserve and presents to wide audiences precious fine arts works, incunabula, archival documents, seals, liturgical clothes and objects from the monastery.
