Tashi Rabten Letzehof

Tashi Rabten Letzehof is a Buddhist monastery set on a two-hectare property with gardens, meditation halls, and living spaces. The site houses approximately ten monks and serves as a place for study and spiritual practice.

The property originates from 1366 when the Nenzing community gave over the forested land to be used. It was converted into a Buddhist center in the 1980s after being a private estate for many centuries.

The monastery serves as a gathering place for people interested in Tibetan Buddhism and meditation practice. The community here works to bring Buddhist teachings and daily practice into Western life.

The monastery welcomes visitors and offers opportunities to join prayers, meditation, or access the library. It helps to check schedules beforehand and bring warm clothing since the buildings are not heavily heated.

The monastery teaches in five different languages including Tibetan and Czech, reflecting connections to international Buddhist communities. This linguistic diversity makes it an unusual presence in the Austrian countryside.
