Kloster St. Scholastika Neustift, Benedictine monastery in Ortenburg, Germany.

The monastery complex includes the St. Pius X Church, constructed in 1954 with designs by Munich architect Michael Steinbrecher.

In 1922, eight German-born sisters initiated the construction of St. Scholastika monastery after being forced to leave their previous location in Bellemagny, France.

The monastery maintains a dedicated space for Eucharistic adoration and follows the Rule of Saint Benedict through daily prayer and community service.

The monastery operates a kindergarten, educational facilities, and nursing care services, with 38 sisters working across different departments including administration and gardening.

During the National Socialist period, Slovenian children were separated from their families and brought to St. Scholastika monastery for germanization purposes.
