    Knechtsteden Monastery is a former Premonstratensian abbey from the early 12th century, which has been in the possession of the Spiritan Order since 1896.
    The Catholic Norbert grammar school and a restaurant are also located on the monastery grounds. The monastery is located in a local recreation and nature reserve.


    The Fronhof Knechtsteden was given to the Premonstratensian Order in 1130. That was the cornerstone for the foundation of the monastery. Much more about the history here: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kloster_Knechtsteden

        Beautiful monastery with attached high school. Very nice starting place for hikes in the surrounding forests.
        In the Gasthof Klosterhof you can give a tour a nice end.
