Kapuzinerkloster Gauenstein, Capuchin monastery in Schruns, Austria
Built on a steep rocky hill in the Gaueserwald forest, the monastery contains a rectangular church with a gabled roof and bell tower.
The site began as a hermitage in the early 18th century before developing into a Capuchin monastery under Emperor Joseph II in the 1780s.
The monastery church features a painting of the Sorrowful Virgin Mary by Johann Paul Scheiber from 1750 and Stations of the Cross by Josef Bertle.
Located at Gauesweg 1 in Schruns, the monastery can be reached by phone at +43 5556 73134 or by email at engelbert.bacher@kapuziner.
The walled monastery garden includes machinery buildings and supports from a former material cable car that connected to the valley floor.
