Der Waldbreitbacher Klosterberg

Brief description

The complex includes the St. Marienhaus, the Forum Antoniuskirche, the Rosa-Flesch conference centre, the herb and bible garden, the meadow orchards, the Klosterbergterrassen and the monastery shop/bookshop. St. Marienhaus is the motherhouse of the Waldbreitbach Franciscan Sisters. The founder of the order, Margarethe Flesch, called Mother M. Rosa, was beatified in 2008. She built the first house of today's convent complex with some sisters in 1861. The order of Franciscan nuns is particularly dedicated to caring for the sick and elderly. The Forum Antoniuskirche is an event space without equal. Built 100 years ago as a hospital chapel, it was converted in 1999 after extensive restoration work into a multifunctional meeting place equipped with modern lighting and sound technology. The individual charm and the friendly atmosphere on 350 sqm offer the ideal setting for your large events (meetings, conferences and congresses) as well as for company or family celebrations or concerts for up to 150 people. Information is available from the Rosa-Flesch Conference Centre. The monastery garden has a lot in store for you: edible flowers, herbs with their diverse healing powers, indigenous plants, plants of the Bible...... In addition, tips and ideas for designing your own garden, terrace and balcony. Seminars on natural history for children and adults are held regularly. The Klosterberg terraces offer a wonderful view over the Wied valley. When the weather is fine, you can enjoy the wonderful outdoor terrace. The monastery shop with monastery bookshop is located in the entrance area of the House of St. Clare on the Waldbreitbach monastery hill and invites you to browse and linger.
