Stift Inzigkofen

The monastery features spacious gardens, stone walls, and multiple buildings arranged in a rectangular formation around a central courtyard at 48.0741° N latitude.

The institution operated from 1354 until 1802, when Prince Anton Aloys of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen acquired ownership during the regional secularization movement.

The monastery library contained numerous texts about German mysticism, contributing to religious literature studies and spiritual education throughout Upper Swabia.

The buildings now function as an adult education center, offering various courses and educational programs while maintaining their original architectural characteristics.

Thirty nuns and multiple lay sisters lived within these walls, creating a self-sufficient community that practiced music and maintained extensive manuscript collections.
