Franziskanerkloster Hardenberg-Neviges, Franciscan monastery in Neviges, Germany.

The monastery buildings in Neviges include living quarters for monks, a pilgrimage church, and stone walls surrounding a central garden courtyard.

Founded in 1676 by Anna von Bernsau, the monastery served as a Catholic center during the Counter-Reformation period in the Protestant Hardenberg region.

For 340 years, the Franciscan monks maintained religious traditions, guided pilgrimages, and provided spiritual guidance to the local community until 2020.

The monastery complex includes the Maria, Queen of Peace parish church, which continues to serve the religious needs of Neviges residents.

In 1681, a small copper engraving of the Immaculate Conception from Dorsten monastery initiated a significant pilgrimage movement to Neviges.
