Even if the BBS has only been around for 40 years, the walls around us are almost 8 centuries old. However, the last nun lived here in 1773 - since then the former Cistercian monastery has belonged to the Aschaffenburg grammar school fund. In the Elsenfeld market in the district of Miltenberg, there is still much to remind of the medieval mood of the early days, with the picturesque landscape of the Spessart nature park, its forests, meadows and streams.

Former abbey of the Cistercian women from 1232. It is now operated as a vocational training center. In addition, there are usually summer concerts and the local winemaking families run a wine tasting room (not open every day)
