Kloster St. Anna, Monastery in Gerlisberg, Lucerne, Switzerland.

The St. Anna Monastery features a stone building constructed between 1901 and 1904, following the guidance of engineer Muller in Lucerne.

The Capuchin Order established their presence in Lucerne during 1498 when five monks from Solothurn settled near the St. Anna chapel.

The St. Anna sisters maintain daily worship services, manage a pharmacy garden, and create monastery tea using herbs grown within their grounds.

The monastery provides accommodation options for visitors seeking to experience the daily routines and traditions of the religious community.

The monastery operates its own bakery where nuns collaborate with local residents to produce prosphora and aniseed cookies for Catholic parishes.
