Wallfahrtstätte Eremitage, Pilgrimage monastery in Wilnsdorf, Germany.

The monastery complex includes a chapel with Renaissance and Gothic elements, a hermitage lodge, a shrine house, and an outdoor forest altar.

Founded in 1684 by Jesuit Brother Anton Hülse, the monastery replaced a Marian chapel that was destroyed during the Thirty Years War.

The monastery houses a baroque altar from 1736 and a Pietà sculpture created in 1961 by Düsseldorf artist Else Hoffmann.

The monastery is located on Federal Road B54 between Obersdorf/Rödgen and Niederdielfen junction, offering regular religious services and pilgrimage events.

From 1953 to 1966, the Eremitage served as a monastery for the Poor Clares Order, one of few new establishments after the Reformation.
