Grafschaft Abbey, Benedictine monastery in Schmallenberg, Germany.
The monastery complex includes multiple buildings with light sandstone facades, arched windows, and a central church with a prominent tower at 51.1444°N latitude.
The Benedictine Abbey, established in 1001, operated continuously until 1803 when secularization led to its dissolution and transformation into a medical facility.
The Sisters of Saint Charles Borromeo maintain religious traditions while managing one of North Rhine-Westphalia's primary pulmonary medical centers since 1948.
The monastery houses a specialized hospital focusing on respiratory care, intensive medicine, and rehabilitation programs for patients requiring long-term ventilation treatment.
The monastery combines medieval architectural elements with modern medical facilities, operating as Germany's largest respiratory weaning center within historical abbey walls.
