Frequently asked questions

What makes a monastery retreat in Germany special?
Germany has a centuries-old monastic tradition with over 900 active monasteries and religious houses. From Benedictine abbeys in Bavaria to northern German Cistercian monasteries, you'll experience authentic spirituality in historic settings. At Retreat Vacation you'll currently find 70 monastery retreats in Germany.
How much does a monastery retreat in Germany cost?

When is the best time for a monastery retreat in Germany?
Monasteries welcome guests year-round. Advent and Lent are particularly popular for spiritual reflection. In spring and autumn, you'll benefit from a quiet atmosphere and beautiful nature surrounding the often rurally located monasteries.
Which regions in Germany have particularly well-known monasteries for guests?
Bavaria is a focal point with monasteries like Andechs, Ettal, and Münsterschwarzach. But North Rhine-Westphalia (Maria Laach), Lower Saxony (Nütschau), and Baden-Württemberg (Beuron) also offer traditional houses with guest programs. In eastern Germany, monasteries like Helfta or Volkenroda are popular.
Do I need to be religious to visit a monastery in Germany?
No, the vast majority of German monasteries welcome people of all worldviews. The focus is on silence, structure, and inner retreat. All that's expected is respect for the monastic daily routine and house rules.
What does a typical day look like during a monastery retreat in Germany?
The day starts early – often at 6 AM with morning prayer (Lauds). This is followed by times of silence, communal meals, midday prayer, a free period for walks or reading, and evening prayer (Vespers). As a guest, depending on the house, you can participate in all or individual elements.
Can I participate in monastery work during a retreat in Germany?
Yes, many German monasteries offer 'Monastery for a Time' programs where you actively participate in daily life – for example in the kitchen, garden, or library. This is a particularly intensive form of experience and is found very enriching by many guests.
