Detailed description

The Commnde in Waldbreitbach, the former house of the Teutonic Knights, was first mentioned in 1239 and stands above the parish church Maria Himmelfahrt. In 1260, Countess Mechthildis von der Neuerburg transferred patronage of the parish of Waldbreitbach to the Teutonic Knights. The parish church was built at the same time. In 1929 the Commende passed into the possession of the Waldbreitbach Franciscan Sisters. In the meantime, the listed Commende is privately owned. The historically important building, some of which is almost 800 years old, has been carefully and comprehensively renovated by experts.
