Kloster Tiefenthal, Cistercian monastery in Eltville am Rhein, Germany.
The monastery stands between Martinsthal and Schlangenbad, featuring traditional religious architecture and extensive grounds for contemplative activities.
Founded in the mid-12th century, the monastery adopted Cistercian rules in 1237 under the authority of Eberbach Abbey and housed a garment of Saint Elizabeth.
The monastery maintains Cistercian traditions through communal living practices, religious ceremonies, and educational programs for visitors interested in monastic life.
Visitors can access the monastery from Monday to Friday between 8:30-12:00 and 14:00-16:30, with guided tours available upon request.
During World War II, the monastery housed an SS spy department before being destroyed by bombs in 1945 and later reconstructed by Dernbacher Schwestern.
