Frauenalb Abbey was founded around 1185 by the Counts of Eberstein as a Benedictine convent for noble nuns. Only women from noble families were admitted. Shortly after 1600, the last woman left the monastery. Today, a foundation oversees the preservation of this remarkable ruin.

Great ruined monastery. Very impressive and you can take great photos. If you want to run, there are beautiful hiking trails all around.
