    Here you can expect a great monastery café, Hummel figurines, a very beautiful monastery garden, the impressive monastery church and wonderful concerts.

    In 1251, Knight Steinmar von Sießen-Strahlegg gifted his town house at Bogengasse 15 in Saulgau to the convent of the Sisters of Sulegen. In 1260, he gifted his estate in Süessen and the patronage rights of the local church to the Dominican nuns of Sulgay. The Wendelinus Chapel and hermitage on the Sießen footpath were built in 1386.

    In 1632/34, the monastery was plundered and burned by the Swedes.

    In 1716/22, the monastery buildings were rebuilt in the Baroque style by the Vorarlberg architect Franz Beer von Au.
