A former monastery that is now privately owned.

"The monastery was founded as a subsidiary of Saarn Monastery in 1214, initially in Karlesforst (Kaarst), but after 1231 it was relocated to Eppinghoven due to a donation from the Neuss couple Sibert and Gisela Papal confirmation of his possession by Gregory IX. During the Burgundian War, the monastery was so badly damaged in 1475 that the abbess and the convent had to seek refuge in the neighboring fortified Gnadental monastery.In September 1794 the canons fled with their valuables from the French to the Düsseldorf Capuchin monastery, which was then plundered when the French troops crossed the Rhine on September 6, 1795. During this time, a hospital for 700 men was set up in Eppinghoven Abbey. In 1795 the canonesses were able to return to the monastery building with considerable French contributions, but in the following years were faced with a massive increase in the tax burden, which they could no longer cope with. In 1802 the monastery was abolished and the church later demolished. In the Clemens Sels Museum in Neuss, the only remnants of the former monastery church are two side wings of an altar that was built around 1500. "
