Neuwerk Nunnery, Romanesque monastery in Mönchengladbach, Germany.
The Neuwerk Nunnery features stone structures with semicircular arches, thick walls, and geometric patterns characteristic of medieval German religious architecture.
The monastery underwent several transformations since its 13th-century foundation, including a period as a Cistercian monastery and later as a collegiate institution for noble women.
The nunnery maintains Benedictine traditions through daily prayer sessions, religious ceremonies, and educational programs focused on spiritual development and craftsmanship.
The monastery opens its doors to visitors during specific hours, with guided tours available in German that explain the architectural elements and religious significance.
The nunnery's garden contains a collection of medicinal herbs and plants traditionally used in monastic medicine, maintained according to medieval cultivation methods.
