      The former gatehouse of the monastery and the small women's chapel give an impression of the former monastery surroundings and the cobblestone paths transport us to the car-free past around 1150 AD.

        The monastery gate from the second half of the 12th century was the only access to the monastery area, which was enclosed by a wall.
        Only the bricked-up arcades have survived from its porch, and the outer walls from the gatehouse itself.
        The gatekeeper sat in the gatehouse, receiving and looking after the strangers, especially the pilgrims.
