Cloister - Designing Buildings - Share your construction industry knowledge. A cloister is a type of covered walkway, typically found in religious buildings such as convents, monasteries, or cathedrals. Cloisters often have a colonnade to one side, opening onto a quadrangle or garth (a cloister garden). They are also found in some colleges such as those at Oxford and Cambridge. The word cloister is derived from the Latin ‘claustrum’, meaning ‘enclosure’.

View of a cloister in the monastery. Notice the vaulted ceilings and other romanesque architectural features along the cloister and throughout the monastery. Romanesque, or Nordic, architecture predated gothic architecture by a couple centuries beoming popular around the tenth century. It consisted of thick walls, round arches, groin vaults, towers, and arcading. It has also been described as being symplistic in design.
The "Gra Car", Gratiarum Cartusia (Charterhouse of the Graces), is one of the most remarkable and characteristic examples of Lombard art. It was founded as a family mausoleum in 1396 by Gian Galeazzo Visconti of Milan. Most of the monastery was built in the 15th and 16th centuries to the plans of successive architects. There are two cloisters. The smaller one is decorated with charming terracottas and a baroque fountain. The larger one with 122 richly decorated arcades (shown here) is bordered by twenty-four cells.
