Ursulines of Calvarienberg, Monastery in Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler, Germany

The monastery stands on Calvarienberg hill, featuring a church, educational buildings, and a spiritual center within its architectural complex.

Established in 1838, the Ursuline congregation took over the former Franciscan monastery, which had been abandoned during the secularization of 1803.

The monastery maintained a girls' school and high school, contributing to female education in the Rhineland-Palatinate region for many generations.

The monastery church and spiritual center remain accessible to visitors, while other sections of the complex maintain restricted access.

The distance from Ahrweiler town center to the monastery hilltop matches the length from Pontius Pilate's praetorium to Golgotha in Jerusalem.
