    In the middle of the 13th century, Count Otto I founded a monastery in Leeden because he was involved in the murder of the Archbishop of Cologne. Shortly after completion, the monastery church was inaugurated. The church was repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt over the years.

      An idyllic and peaceful place, beautifully landscaped and with plenty of seating and running water.

        I was driving through and thought it was "quite nice". It makes a nice impression purely from the outside.

                    It's worth walking around the church, because on the front right you go through the walls... After the destruction in 1945, the simple Cistercian building style was well restored. The church is open, a nice gesture from the originally Reformed community (“you can/should pray anywhere”). Right, even while riding a bike. But a quiet place is still good.

                      There is a Way of St. James pilgrim stamp for Leeden in the Elbinger Str. 2 supermarket. The small bistro there is also ideal for snacks, coffee / cake as a break.
