Beautiful monastery ruins, two towers are accessible, in addition to the beautiful view of the Rhine plain, you can get an overview of the ruins. You can explore everything nicely and the boards inform exactly where which rooms were.

Michaelskloster on the Heiligenberg in Heidelberg was founded as a branch monastery of the Lorsch monastery in the 9th century on the site of an old cult site. Remains of foundations have been preserved from the site, which was abandoned in the 16th century.

A little above the Thingstätte are the ruins of the St. Michael monastery.
The foundation walls have been preserved and there are some information boards on the floor plan in the area.
