St. Scholastica Monastery is a community of Benedictine Sisters in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Our beginnings in Arkansas started with Benedictine Sisters who migrated south in 1878 from Ferdinand, Indiana, to plant the seeds needed to grow and nurture a motherhouse. We have served the local community and the surrounding states for almost two centuries over 140 years.

Please call 479-783-4147 to make an appointment for a tour of the monastery or to check in to walk the grounds, tread the labyrinth, or visit the grottoes.

AS PRIVATE PROPERTY AND AS A PRIVATE RESIDENCE, WE HAVE RESTRICTIONS ON PHOTOGRAPHIC USE SO THAT WE CAN SAFEGUARD BOTH THE PRIVATE NATURE OF THE PROPERTY ITSELF, IT’S OWNERS AND THE USAGE OF IMAGES OF VARIOUS ASPECTS OF THE BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS.
