Located on a striking hillside in the Sulztal Valley between Beilngries and Berching, Plankstetten Monastery is one of the most impressive and historically valuable monastic complexes in the Altmühltal Nature Park and is considered a monument of national importance. The complex is not a museum, but rather the home and workplace of a vibrant Benedictine community of monks. The monastery tavern offers organic beer, brewed by the Riedenburg Brewery, and delicious food. The organic shop and its accompanying wine cellar offer everything a gourmet's heart desires.

The Plankstetten monastery is a Benedictine abbey. In addition to the stop, it is also worth visiting the monastery shop to pick up fresh provisions.

And of course the restaurant. The food is great. And the beer only ... The beer monastery is brewed by the Riedenburg organic brewery. I fell in love with the red special.
