Julita Abbey

Julita Abbey was a Cistercian monastery in the parish of Julita in Oppunda Hundred, Södermanland, Sweden. The monastery was originally founded in 1160 at Viby, close to Sigtuna, but under the patronage of King Knut Eriksson, who donated land and a right to parts of the fishing at Älvkarleby, it was moved in 1180 to Säby by the lake Öljaren in Julita. The monastery was therefore also known as Säby, or Saba in Latin.
