Kloster Anhausen

The monastery complex stands at the coordinates 49°12'4.0"N and 10°2'33.4"E, with a remaining wall measuring 18 meters high and 10 meters wide.

Founded in 1300, the Catholic monastery operated continuously until its dissolution in 1557, marking over two centuries of religious activities in the Baden-Württemberg region.

Five relief epitaphs on the remaining wall depict members of the Bebenburg family, commissioned by Wilhelm von Bebenburg between 1496 and 1502.

Located in the district of Schwäbisch Hall, the site presents architectural elements and structural remains that document the evolution of medieval monastic construction.

One of the wall sculptures represents Bishop Lupold von Bebenburg, who, despite his memorial at the monastery, received burial at Bamberg Cathedral.
