Island Time – 3 Days to Settle In, Relax, and Recharge

Unsere "Abtei Frauenwörth" liegt inmitten einer ursprünglichen schönen Landschaft
des bayerischen Alpenvorlandes auf der Fraueninsel im Chiemsee.
Die lange wechselvolle Geschichte, die Landschaft, die Menschen der Umgebung,
die auf Beständigkeit und Selbstverwaltung ausgerichtete geistliche Gemeinschaft
und die Wallfahrt zur Seligen Irmengard prägen diesen herrlichen Ort
und üben weithin eine besondere Ausstrahlung und Anziehungskraft aus.

Mostly vegan
