Various names were given to the places where monks lived. Among Christian monks, most lived in a monastery or Abbey. They lived together under the supervision of an Abbot. A single monk lived in a hermitage. In the Eastern Orthodox area, a group of monks could live together in a group under a group under the Rule of Anthony. Such a group was called a laura. Female monks lived in a convent.Other religions also had monks.

Benedictine monks were called black monks because of the color of their traditional black robes or habits. The term "black monks" was used to distinguish them from the Cistercian monks, who wore white robes and were known as the "white monks."
