Klooster van de Zusters Onder de Bogen

The monastery complex contains multiple historic buildings situated between Sint Servaasklooster and Kommel streets, featuring sections of Maastricht's original city wall.

Founded in 1837 by Elisabeth Gruyters, the congregation established their motherhouse here after purchasing the former chapter house, expanding the facilities over subsequent decades.

The monastery includes the High Council Hall from the 12th century, the neo-Gothic church from 1901, and multiple buildings displaying Renaissance, Baroque, and Gothic architecture.

The monastery currently houses 30 religious members with 50 staff members, focusing on elderly care services and maintaining educational programs for the community.

Archaeological excavations in the 1980s uncovered remains of Roman and Merovingian cemeteries beneath the monastery grounds, revealing the location's ancient origins.
