Sint-Gabriël, Catholic monastery in Haastrecht, Netherlands.

The Sint-Gabriël monastery includes a chapel and stands near the Hollandse IJssel River in the municipality of Krimpenerwaard, South Holland.

Built between 1921 and 1922, the Sint-Gabriël monastery was designed by architect Joseph Franssen and became the administrative center of Passionist congregation in 1967.

The monastery received its name from Gabriele dell'Adolorata, a Catholic saint canonized in 1920, and served as a training center for missionaries.

The monastery includes an iron-gated cemetery along the riverbank where Passionist fathers and brothers rest, maintaining historical records of the religious community.

The Sint-Gabriël monastery functions as both an administrative headquarters and a spiritual center, combining religious heritage with organizational responsibilities.
