Greisinghof, Religious educational center in Mistlberg, Tragwein, Austria
Greisinghof is a monastery in Tragwein designed with modern facilities, including seminar rooms, guest accommodations, and retreat spaces spread across the property. The complex hosts around 50 guests and features conference areas equipped with current presentation technology.
The Marianist Order founded the facility in 1904 as a training center for novices in their religious community. Priest Jakob Gapp studied there in 1920 and later became known for his spiritual witness.
The monastery has had its own chapel since 1957, and the interior features wall paintings created by Polish artist Teresa Stankiewicz. These artworks give the prayer space a distinctive visual character.
The site is designed for groups receiving full meals and support for meetings and retreat programs. Visitors should ask upon arrival about available rooms and the daily schedule of activities.
The grounds contain a specialized Bible garden where only plants mentioned in religious texts are grown and tended. This botanical collection connects gardening with spiritual learning.
