Kloster Maria im Paradies, Carthusian monastery in St. Veit im Pongau, Austria.

The monastery consists of two main structures: the Lower House with public areas and the Upper House featuring a wooden church and 17 hermitage cells.

The Order of Moniales of Bethlehem established the monastery in 1985, transforming a former tuberculosis sanatorium owned by the Salzburg Archdiocese.

The sisters follow the spiritual teachings of Saint Bruno, founder of the Carthusian order, dedicating their lives to solitude and liturgical community.

The Lower House remains open to pilgrims who wish to participate in daily Eucharistic worship and liturgical services.

Located at 1,300 meters altitude, the monastery church features eastern liturgical art elements and maintains strict enclosure for 23 resident sisters.
