Abbaye Notre-Dame de Koningsoord, Trappist nunnery in Arnhem, Netherlands

The abbey features minimalist architecture with functional spaces divided between prayer halls, living quarters, workshops, and enclosed gardens surrounded by woodland.

Founded in 1939, the abbey relocated from Tilburg to Arnhem in 2009 due to increasing urban development around its original location.

The nuns maintain Trappist traditions through daily prayers, manual labor, and the production of artisanal goods according to the Rule of Saint Benedict.

The monastery accepts visitors during specific hours and provides guided tours with advance reservations through their official website.

The nuns specialize in bookbinding activities, which serve as their primary form of manual labor within the monastery's daily routine.
