    In earlier times the monastery was a Benedictine abbey. Today you will find the Spiritual Way Community, the music center “Musikinsel Rheinau” and the monastery church, which is used by the Catholic parish of Rheinau.

      Rheinau Monastery (Latin Monasterium Rhenaugensis) is a former Benedictine abbey on an island on the Rhine in what is now the Swiss municipality of Rheinau in the canton of Zurich. It was founded around 778 and abolished in 1862. From 1867 to 2000 a psychiatric clinic was housed in the monastery buildings. Today the former monastery building is used by the Spiritual Path Community and the music center "Musikinsel Rheinau", the monastery church by the Catholic parish of Rheinau.
