    When the plague raged in Werne in the 17th and 18th centuries, the monastery was responsible for caring for the sick. A part of the monastery, the plague house, still reminds us of this today. The brothers who had come into contact with sick people lived here so as not to infect the others.

    The Plague House is a half-timbered building. It once served as an isolation ward for the priests who cared for plague victims outside the city gates. Today, pilgrims on the Way of St. James can stay overnight there.
