The Norbertine Abbey is a living embodiment of spirituality and (church) culture. Around 30 brothers live here, their day structured by three communal prayer times: morning prayer, the Eucharist (at midday), and evening prayer. If you wish, you are welcome to participate. Even if you are not religious, the chants and prayers may offer you a moment of peace and reflection.
On the grounds, you will also find an experience center dedicated to traditional crafts. The old farm buildings now house a monastery café with its own brewery, a bakery, and a monastery shop.
