Next to the monastery, the second outstanding architectural element is the tower-reinforced gatehouse standing in the north.

In 1145 Adelvolk von Reifenberg, his wife Richenza and his two brothers founded the monastery Speinshart and gave it to the Premonstratensians. The abbey was repealed in 1556 in the course of the Reformation in the Upper Palatinate and was repopulated in 1661 from the monastery Steingaden. The place came in the Thirty Years' War to the Electorate of Bavaria and formed until the secularization in 1803 a closed Hofmark the monastery. The monastery came after the secularization initially in state ownership and later housed, inter alia, the vicarage, a school and the forestry office.

Absolutely worth seeing monastery complex with well-kept listed buildings and a beautiful inn, the monastery tavern. You should definitely pay a visit to the monastery village and the monastery.
