The Most Important Jesuit Ruin You've Never Heard Of

Upgrade your skin with Captain's Salve: https://www.captainssalve.com Beneath layers of overgrowth and time lies an abandoned Jesuit monastery hidden on the Greek island of Naxos, untouched, undocumented, and almost erased from the historical record. But who were the Jesuits really? Missionaries? Master educators? Or a secretive religious order whose power stretched across Vatican politics, European empires, and even modern conspiracy theory? In this video, we walk through the haunting ruins of this forbidden religious site, piecing together the hidden history of the Society of Jesus, a group so powerful they were once feared by kings and banned by popes. We explore: Jesuit origins and their role in the Counter-Reformation How they became the Church’s most feared and respected order Their influence in global education, politics, and colonization Suppression, exile, and whispered secrets in Vatican archives Why this abandoned monastery may have been left to rot—and what it still hides From esoteric symbolism to strategic positioning within the Ottoman Empire, this is more than an urban exploration. It’s a doorway into a suppressed chapter of Catholic history—one that still casts shadows in global affairs today.
