Kloster Ingenbohl, Catholic monastery in Brunnen, Switzerland

Kloster Ingenbohl is the motherhouse of the Sisters of Mercy of the Holy Cross, set on a hillside above Brunnen on Lake Lucerne. The complex grew from the Nigg farmstead acquired in 1855. Its convent church, built 1971–1973 to plans by Karl Higi and consecrated in 1974, has coloured skylights and stained-glass windows by Sister M. Raphaela Bürgi.

Father Theodosius Florentini founded the Sisters of the Holy Cross in Menzingen in 1844. In 1855 he bought the Nigg farm, an agricultural estate on a hill in Ingenbohl, which became the mother house of a new branch. In 1856 a bishop's decision made the Menzingen and Ingenbohl sisters two independent institutes.
