The Minorite Monastery in Oberwesel

One of the jewels of medieval Oberwesel is an ensemble consisting of the ruined church, monastery garden and sacristy of the former Franciscan Minorite monastery. The sacristy is especially worth seeing and its unusual form is of particular architectural value. During comprehensive reconstruction work carried out in 2006/07 it was restored to its original 15th century condition.

Today, both monastery garden and sacristy are privately owned, but we can offer you exclusive access to this enchanted place. Book one of our special visitor packages and be transported to the world of the medieval mendicant (begging) orders.

A champagne reception in the lush, well-tended monastery garden could be the stylish prelude to your Function in the Kulturhaus. Couples choosing to hold their wedding reception here will also have use of the garden as the perfect setting for wedding photos.
