Haus der Stille, Buddhist meditation center in Roseburg, Germany
Haus der Stille is a meditation center in northern Germany featuring a main building, guest house, and meditation hall set among gardens and lakes. The grounds provide space for various meditation techniques drawn from different Buddhist traditions.
Founded in 1962, the center grew from a monastery project started by members of the Buddhist Society of Hamburg. This establishment became a lasting home for Buddhist practice in Germany.
The place draws people seeking inner reflection who practice together in a shared community setting. Different Buddhist traditions coexist here, each contributing to a space focused on personal spiritual work.
The center offers meditation courses, retreats, and workshops throughout the year, with accommodations available in the guest house. Visitors should prepare for quiet days and use the natural surroundings as part of the experience.
The center offers silent retreats without assigned teachers, organized by a working group that emphasizes independent practice. This self-directed approach sets it apart from conventional guided retreats found elsewhere.
