I thought your 1st picture was the Grande-Chartreuse (Grenoble), founded in 1084 by Bruno of Koln. Peterje was founded by monks from G-C, (Europe, already !). In 1904, the monks from GC sought shelter in Farneta,Italy. Were they in fact at Peterje ?

It is quite interesting that Pleterje is still full of life. The monks do enjoy their normal work as many years before. The page is presenting Pleterje on a very interesting way.
