The Tückelhausen Monastery is a former Carthusian monastery. Tückelhausen is an incorporated suburb of Ochsenfurt in Bavaria. Most of the property has been used privately since secularization. The Cartusian monastery is almost completely preserved. The Carthusian Museum gives an insight into the history of the Franconian Carthusian monasteries and the everyday life of the monks.

Cycling

A worthwhile detour from Ochsenfurt on the Gaubahn cycle path (de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaubahn-Radweg). The monastery was founded as a Premonstratensian monastery in 1138 and taken over by the Carthusians in 1351. Their motto is “together alone”. The monastery complex still shows the former cloister and 14 charterhouses (small houses with living quarters and garden areas). The complex contains the Franconian Carthusian Museum, which is open from May to October on Saturdays and Sundays from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.: museen.bistum-wuerzburg.de/tueckelhausen.
