In 1014 Erimberto I of Morozzo ordered the Benedictine monks of the abbey Fruttuario to San Biagio. Throughout the centuries the Monastery has undergone various structural changes. In the 9th century a chapel was erected and dedicated to St. Blasius (San Biagio). In the following century the construction of the Monastery church with the three aisles took place. In the 13th century a further expansion in the presbytery area took place. Today, frescoes painted between the 15th and 17th centuries can still be seen in the church.
In the second half of the 17th century a further internal transformation in the baroque style was carried out and the church was reduced to half its size with now only two aisles. The monks left the priory in 1440 and Pope Felix V handed the entire priory of San Biagio to the Prebendary of Mondovì. From 1538 until 1904 the Monastery served as the parish church of the village. A new parish church was then built in the centre of the village and the priory became a place for the farmers to use as stables and store rooms.
1973 with the arrival of Fr. Filiberto Guala from the Monastery of Frattocchie of Marino – a trappist monk – a new era began at the Monastery. Fr. Filiberto was a hermit when he arrived at San Biagio and with the help of friends and bishops of the Piemont he began restoration work on the Monastery and he continued to do so until his departure in 1984. He left with the hope that a monastic brotherhood would be formed. A year later a new Monastery was founded and together with the “Madonna della Fiducia” association the work he started is now continuing, with the aim of carrying on the tradition of Benedictine spirituality in the realm of interreligious dialogue.
