The Order of Cistercians (OCist) (Latin Cistercenses), otherwise White Monks (from the colour of the habit, over which is worn a black scapular or apron) is a Roman Catholic order of enclosed monks.

Origins of the Order

---

In 1098 Saint Robert of Molesme, born of a noble family in Champagne, France, at first a Benedictine monk and then abbot of certain hermits, settled at Molesme near Châtillon. Being dissatisfied with the manner of life and observance there, he migrated with twenty of the monks to a swampy place ("a place of horrors") called Citeaux in the diocese of Châlons, not far from Dijon (Burgundy).
