Kloster Rumbeck, Medieval monastery in Arnsberg, Germany.

The monastery complex includes St. Laurentius Church, the Arnsberg City and State Archives, and the Lichthaus with numerous archaeological findings.

Graf Heinrich I donated his main estate in Rumbeck to establish a Premonstratensian women's monastery in the 12th century.

The monastery played a central role in religious education as approximately 20 choir ladies, 10 lay sisters, and 3 novices from upper middle class conducted their daily activities.

The monastery offers guided tours through its grounds, including access to the church, archives, and educational panels detailing its historical development.

The Klausing organ in Rumbeck church contains pipe material from the 15th century, making it a significant instrument in the region.
