    The Monastery Speinshart was built in the 12th century as a Romanesque monastery. The monastery church is one of the most important architectural monuments of the Upper Palatinate. The unique design of the church interior is characterized by the abundance of stucco work and paintings. The monastery is located in the midst of the preserved as an ensemble monastery village Speinshart, which was renovated exemplary. Together with the historic monastery village, the monastery is a cultural asset of European importance.

      The Speinshart monastery has a monastery village which was arranged in a ring around the monastery, probably for fortification reasons. At that time, the monastery village could only be entered through the north gate, as there was still swampland around the monastery at that time.

        Very beautifully restored monastery village, beautiful baroque church. The carefully renovated monastery inn is worth a visit.
