Kloster Seligenthal, Franciscan monastery in Siegburg, Germany
The Seligenthal Monastery features a church built in Rhenish transitional style, maintaining much of its original structural elements from medieval times.
Count Heinrich von Sayn and his wife Mechthild von Landsberg established the Franciscan monastery in 1231, making it the oldest Franciscan church north of the Alps.
The monastery church transformed into a parish church in 1854, continuing its religious function while preserving its architectural and spiritual heritage.
The former cloister courtyard now houses a four-star hotel with conference facilities, supported by a foundation dedicated to maintaining the monastery complex.
In 2018, Carmelite hermits of Our Lady of Mount Carmel moved into the former rectory, establishing the Saint Elijah Carmel community.
