The ruins of the collegiate church are located on a peninsula near Bremm on the Moselle. The grounds of the former monastery are used for viticulture and have become known as a single vineyard through the Abtei Kloster Stuben brand.

Kind of a great place that reminds me of Ireland.
Stuben Monastery (1137–1802) is a former Augustinian choir monastery on a peninsula near Bremm on the Moselle. The site of the former monastery is used for viticulture and has become known as a single site thanks to the Abtei Kloster Stuben brand.
The foundation of the monastery at the beginning of the 12th century goes back to the Augustinian canons of Springiersbach. At the request of his daughter Gisela, the noble Egelolf gave Abbot Richard I von Springiersbach his castle house, a chapel and other possessions on a promontory near Bremm for the construction of a monastery - a donation that enabled him to build a St. Nicholas' Church. Stuben is first mentioned as ecclesia beati Nicolai de insula, around 1160 as sorores de Insula. In 1137 a large women's convent had settled here. The Archbishop of Trier, Albero, limited this in his confirmation of founding from 1137 to 100 women. The knight Heinrich von Ulmen (verifiably 1202-1236) gave his sister Irmgard as head of the monastery in 1208 the storage library (today in the Diocesan Museum Limburg an der Lahn) with cross particles and other relics that he brought from Constantinople from the fourth crusade (1202-1204) would have. Since then, Stuben has attracted many pilgrims. A cruciform chapel was built around 1275 to worship the relic. Despite the economic decline, the monastery church and cruciform chapel were rebuilt in 1685–1687. In 1788 the monastery was converted into a free women's monastery and abolished in 1802. The monastery buildings were auctioned for demolition in 1820.
