Kloster Notkersegg, Capuchin monastery in St. Gallen, Switzerland.
The monastery Notkersegg stands on elevated ground with an enclosure wall dating from 1757, offering views across the surrounding Swiss landscape.
Founded in 1381 as a residence for Beguines, the monastery transformed into a Capuchin institution that continues its religious traditions through centuries.
Eight sisters maintain a multi-generational community within the monastery walls, dedicating their lives to prayer, service, and spiritual growth.
The monastery includes a specialized care facility where six elderly sisters from Eastern Switzerland receive medical attention from qualified professionals.
The monastery operates a live-streaming prayer service, connecting with people beyond its physical boundaries while preserving traditional monastic practices.
