    Hiking

    Cloisters that lead around monastery gardens are often beautiful.
    Not only in the Christian faith, but also in Islam, for example, gardens are meant to invite people to linger and get closer to paradise.
    The Eberbach monastery is one of the most beautiful monastery complexes in Germany and is also highly recommended for wine lovers.

    📜 Anno Domini 1327⚘️…

    In the darkness,
    among 🕯📜parchment and forbidden books📚, blood was spilled behind monastery walls⛪️....


    A cunning Franciscan friar and his young novice seek the truth – and find themselves amidst murder and the Inquisition.

    🎬When star director Jean-Jacques Annaud and producer Bernd Eichinger set out in 1986 to find a suitable location for their film adaptation of Umberto Eco's classic "⚘️The Name of the Rose⚘️", it was the beginning of a global career for Eberbach Monastery⛪️ as a screen star.
