    The Johanniterkapelle from the 13th century in Bokelesch is the last remaining Catholic monastery building on East Frisian soil and in so far it is unique. As the chapel of the once very strong and widespread Coming of the Johanniter. On weekends and some public holidays you can also have coffee and cake inside and outside in the adjoining farm garden for a small fee in the adjoining community building.
    You can find a little more information on the Saterland website:

    The Johanniter Commandery Bokelesch is a former Johanniter Commandery. The monastery was in Bokelesch/Strücklingen on the Sagter Ems, a district of today's Saterland municipality in the Cloppenburg district in Lower Saxony. From her the monastery chapel has been preserved.
    The founding year of the monastery is unknown. The monastery was probably founded around the middle of the 13th century as a double monastery by Johanniter from Burgsteinfurt. The monastery was first mentioned in a document, the so-called Groninger Settlement, from 1319.
