Kloster Bentlage, Medieval monastery complex in Rheine, Germany.
The Kloster Bentlage monastery features Gothic architecture with multiple buildings arranged around a central courtyard along the Ems river banks.
Founded in 1437 for the Order of the Holy Cross, the monastery transformed into an aristocratic residence in 1803 during the regional secularization period.
The monastery now functions as a cultural center, presenting regular exhibitions of regional art, historical artifacts, and hosting musical performances throughout the year.
Visitors can explore the monastery grounds daily, with guided tours available that explain the architectural details and historical significance of different sections.
The monastery maintains a traditional salt production facility, demonstrating historical salt extraction methods from natural springs in the surrounding area.
