Hamborn Abbey, Premonstratensian monastery in Alt-Hamborn, Duisburg, Germany
The monastery includes the abbey church, treasury, Abbey School, Abbey Centre for conferences, and St. John's Hospital within its expansive grounds.
Founded in 1136 by Gerhard von Hochstaden, the monastery replaced a small parish church from the 9th century estate called Havenburn.
Twenty-three canons participate in daily communal prayers, celebrate Mass, and perform pastoral work throughout the northern districts of Duisburg.
Visitors can access both the abbey church and its treasury, which contains the 1986 Mönch organ with 45 registers and 3,181 pipes.
The monastery maintains additional communities in Magdeburg and provides pastoral care to former Premonstratensian abbeys at Cappenberg and Sayn.
