Abtei Mariendonk, Benedictine monastery in Grefrath, Germany.
The Mariendonk Abbey stands as a spiritual center along the Lower Rhine region, featuring a chapel, conference facilities, and a forest area with gardens.
The monastery began in 1900 when Mother Ursula Kleberg and 22 nuns settled on land donated by Johanna Stieger, receiving abbey status in 1948.
The resident nuns maintain Benedictine traditions through theological studies, educational programs, and regular discussions of biblical texts with visiting guests.
The abbey provides vegetarian meals, single rooms with varying amenities, and requires a minimum stay of two nights at rates starting from 40 euros.
The monastery serves as a starting point for multiple hiking trails, including the 4.53-kilometer Erlebnispfad route along the Niers river.
