Kloster Frenswegen
Kloster Frenswegen, Medieval monastery in Nordhorn, Germany
Kloster Frenswegen is a monastery complex in Nordhorn featuring seminar rooms, an auditorium, and guest accommodations arranged around a preserved lower cloister. The site combines historic buildings with modern facilities designed for conferences and overnight stays.
The monastery was founded in 1394 as an Augustinian house dedicated to Saint Marienwolde and joined the Windesheim Congregation in 1400. This affiliation shaped its religious identity and regional importance for centuries.
Today the monastery serves as a meeting place for reformed, Lutheran, Baptist, and Catholic communities. People of different faiths gather here for courses, conferences, and spiritual gatherings.
The grounds are easily accessible with direct connections to the German cycling network and feature a private dock for canoe activities. Visitors should book ahead, especially if interested in organized events or overnight packages.
The monastery sits directly on a canal connected to the Dutch waterway network, drawing water sports enthusiasts. This location makes it a rare place where spiritual retreat and active recreation come together.
