Siessen Monastery, Medieval monastery in Bad Saulgau, Germany
The Monastery Church of St. Mark stands within Siessen Abbey, featuring stone walls, traditional architectural elements, and surrounding gardens in Upper Swabia.
Founded in 1251, the monastery experienced closure and property confiscation during 1935-1938 when the Nazi regime expelled the nuns during World War II.
The Franciscan sisters organize regular evening programs focusing on biblical texts, lectures, and workshops that connect participants through spiritual discussions.
Visitors can participate in guided tours of the monastery, attend mass services, explore the herb garden, and enjoy refreshments at the on-site café.
Approximately 70 Franciscan sisters maintain the monastery's traditions while providing community outreach services and hosting musical performances in the festival hall.
