Rot an der Rot Abbey, Premonstratensian imperial abbey in Rot an der Rot, Germany.
The monastery stands on a hill between the Rot and Haslach river valleys, featuring a church dedicated to Saint Verena and extensive convent buildings.
Founded in 1126 by Hemma von Wildenberg, the abbey received imperial status in 1497, allowing its abbot to join the Swabian College of Imperial Prelates.
The monastery buildings form an essential part of the Upper Swabian Baroque Route, displaying significant architectural developments from different construction periods.
The former abbey now operates as an educational and recreational establishment called St Norbert, managed by Premonstratensian nuns since 1950.
French Premonstratensians initially settled the monastery, which grew to house 200 monks under Abbot Ottino during the 12th century.
