Herstelle Abbey
Herstelle Monastery, a Benedictine abbey, is located in Herstelle, a district of Beverungen in the Höxter district.
The foundation of Herstelle Monastery took place in 1899. It was established as a Benedictine monastery of the Most Holy Sacrament in the premises of a former Minorite monastery. A development was its elevation to an abbey in 1924, coupled with its integration into the Beuron Congregation. In 1962, the sisters of Herstelle founded a daughter monastery, Engelthal Monastery.
Herstelle Monastery is situated at approximately 143 meters above sea level in Herstelle, part of the Höxter district in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
Today, Herstelle Monastery continues to be an active monastic establishment. The Benedictine nuns are dedicated to welcoming and caring for guests, as well as engaging in various handicraft activities.
