Drübeck Abbey, Benedictine monastery in Ilsenburg, Germany
The abbey features a twin-towered west building of St Vitus church, five enclosed canoness gardens, and multiple architectural elements from different periods.
Founded in 901, Drübeck Abbey received privileges from Emperor Otto III in 995, granting it status comparable to Imperial Abbeys of Gandersheim and Quedlinburg.
The monastery contains preserved grave slabs, including the sandstone monument of St Adelbrin, and functions as a Protestant seminary and theological college.
Located on the northern edge of the Harz mountains, the abbey includes conference facilities, accommodation for individual guests, and maintained gardens for visitors.
A natural monument linden tree, planted around 1730, stands in the abbey courtyard surrounded by formal gardens designed according to a 1737 plan.
