Kröffelbach Monastery, Coptic Orthodox Monastery in Waldsolms, Germany.
The Saint Anthony Monastery features a domed church with a separate bell tower and three altars decorated with modern icons and frescoes by Egyptian artists.
The first liturgy took place in April 1980 after monks from the Baramous Monastery in Egypt established this religious center in Waldsolms-Kröffelbach.
The monastery houses the Coptic Orthodox Theological College Pope Shenouda III, offering bachelor-level studies in Coptic Orthodox theology since 2002.
Located in the lower Taunus region, the monastery stands 15 kilometers from Wetzlar, 20 kilometers from Butzbach, and 60 kilometers from Frankfurt am Main.
This religious complex represents the first officially accredited Coptic Orthodox monastery on continental Europe, receiving this status in 2010.
