Siessen Monastery, Medieval monastery in Bad Saulgau, Germany
Siessen Monastery is a religious community in Bad Saulgau featuring a monastery church and buildings arranged around inner courtyards. The complex includes living quarters, worship spaces, and cultivated gardens that serve the resident sisters.
The monastery was founded in 1251 and developed through several centuries. It faced closure and expulsion of its residents between 1935 and 1938 under the Nazi regime during World War II.
The site has served as a center for spiritual life and religious community for centuries. Visitors can experience the daily rhythm of monastic life and participate in regular prayer services.
The grounds can be explored on foot and are best visited during daylight hours. There is a monastery shop and café on site where visitors can rest and purchase local products.
The sisters maintain an herb garden and produce natural goods sold in the monastery shop. This craft tradition connects daily work with the spiritual practice of the community.
