Klooster de Stad Gods, Monastery and abbey in Hilversum, Netherlands
The monastery sits in a wooded area called Monnikenberg, northeast of Soestdijkerstraatweg, featuring a chapel and three residential wings constructed around a villa.
Built in 1900 as a villa by architect J.F. Klinkenberg, the building served as a shelter for Jewish orphans during World War II occupation.
The Augustinian Sisters of St. Monica established this religious center in 1946, offering support to mothers experiencing difficulties with their large families.
The monastery contained holiday cabins in surrounding forests and maintained a playground that became a destination for school excursions from nearby regions.
The last twelve sisters relocated to Utrecht in 2014, and since 2017 the building serves as a filming location for television series Dream School.
