Marienmünster abbey, Benedictine monastery in Marienmünster, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
The monastery complex features traditional Benedictine architecture with cloisters, living quarters, and a church situated among the rolling hills of North Rhine-Westphalia.
Founded in 1128 by monks from Corvey Abbey, the monastery underwent secularization in 1810 during the Napoleonic period before being revived by the Passionist order in 1965.
The monastery maintains regular religious services, spiritual retreats, and educational programs that connect visitors with centuries of Benedictine traditions and practices.
Guided tours of the monastery grounds operate daily between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with special arrangements available for group visits and religious ceremonies.
The monastery's architectural elements combine medieval Benedictine designs with modifications from different historical periods, including substantial renovations from 1883 to 1887.
