Abbaye de Grüssau-Wimpfen, Benedictine monastery in Bad Wimpfen, Germany
The Grüssau Abbey stands within the former knights' foundation in Bad Wimpfen, featuring Gothic cloister structures and residential buildings for monks.
Founded in 1947 by Benedictine monks who relocated from Silesia after World War II, the monastery initially established temporary living quarters in Bad Wimpfen.
The monastery contributed to pastoral care across Germany and provided support to displaced persons while maintaining traditional Benedictine practices.
The monastery complex underwent renovations between 1963 and 1964, adding new facilities including a library, sacristy, and guest accommodations.
In 2008, the Order of Malta assumed responsibility for the monastery management due to declining membership among the Benedictine community.
