The Premonstratensians are a Roman Catholic religious order founded in 1120 by Saint Norbert in Premontre, France. They follow the Rule of Saint Augustine and emphasize community life, prayer, and pastoral work. Members are often referred to as Norbertines and live in abbeys, engaging in various ministries, including education and social outreach. The order spread throughout Europe, establishing numerous monasteries and contributing to the Church's spiritual and educational missions. Today, the Premonstratensians continue to uphold their traditions while adapting to modern needs, focusing on community service and spiritual growth within their congregations.
