Heidelberg was where they went.”

The Benedictine abbey was founded by the monastery Lorsch in 1130. It was struggling with its bad economic situation until the monastery was dissolved in 1562. For a long time, the building was given to different uses thereafter, among others as the "Jungfern-Stift", where women from noble families were to live together as a "community of virtuous women" (therefore, it is called the "Stift Neuburg" to this day). Since 1927, monks have been living here again according to the rules of Saint Benedict. The monastery includes a farm shop with regional organic products and a small organic brewery. Following the rules of their Benedictine order, the monks focus on pastoral work, supporting and meeting with guests through diverse cultural offers such as concerts or lectures on contemporary subjects. Other Information: www.stift-neuburg.de.
