Kloster Tettenweis, Benedictine monastery in Tettenweis, Germany.

The monastery complex features Neo-Romanesque architecture with a church, living quarters, workshops, and a kindergarten spread across multiple buildings.

The monastery originated from a noble castle in 1797, becoming a Benedictine abbey in 1924 under Pope Pius XI's decree.

Nine Benedictine nuns maintain the monastery's traditions through prayer, reading, and work according to the Rule of Saint Benedict from the 6th century.

Visitors can explore the monastery grounds, purchase handmade products from the shop, including candles and pasta, or arrange overnight stays.

The Hans Lindner Foundation acquired the monastery buildings in 2018 while continuing to support the St. Gertrud kindergarten's operations.
