Disibodenberg, Medieval monastery ruins in Odernheim am Glan, Germany
The Disibodenberg Abbey stands on a hilltop where the Glan and Nahe rivers meet, featuring remaining walls of Romanesque architecture.
Saint Disibod established the monastery in the 7th century, which later became a significant Benedictine center before transitioning to Cistercian control in 1259.
The monastery gained recognition as the residence of Hildegard of Bingen, who spent 39 years there studying herbs and corresponding with emperors.
Visitors can explore the excavated ruins through marked paths and learn about the site's history from information panels in the small museum.
According to local records, the monastery's location was chosen when Saint Disibod's walking stick sprouted leaves and a white deer revealed a water spring.
