The Monastery and courtyard at Mount Wilson Observatory. Photograph taken by Seth B. Nicholson. The Monastery served as a dormitory for visiting scientists. This view shows much of the courtyard and several exterior walls of the Monastery that face the courtyard. Small chimneys extend from the roofs; shrubs and small trees grow next to the building.
