Best Hikes to Steinfeld Abbey

Tips

  • The approach is a bit tedious, but it's worth it. The Steinfeld Monastery, with its basilica, is one of the most important medieval architectural monuments in the Rhineland. The monastery café and a small monastery shop invite you to pause and browse.

  • Kloster Steinfeld in the Eifel is a former Premonstratensian abbey with an important basilica from the early 12th century. Visible from afar on a hill in the south of the North Rhine-Westphalian municipality Kall, the "Eifelkloster" with few surrounding houses forms the district Steinfeld.

    Since 1923, the monastery has been owned by the Salvatorian Order, which maintains the Hermann-Josef-Kolleg Steinfeld, a grammar school, the private art academy Kloster Steinfeld and the Franziskus-Jordan-Gästehaus in Steinfeld. After the Order wanted to close the boarding school already at the end of the school year 2011/2012, this could be averted by a parents' initiative. But the remaining 15 students were not enough, and the boarding school was finally closed at the end of the 2012/2013 school year.
