Lichtenthal Abbey
Kloster Lichtenthal
A Cistercian abbey founded in 1245 that is still home to nuns, marking the southern end of the Lichtentaler Allee.
The abbey was founded by the Margravine of Baden and has maintained monastic life for 800 years without interruption. The areas open to visitors include the Margraves' burial chapel, the abbey church, and a small museum. The nuns make liqueurs and handicrafts sold in the shop. The grounds are peaceful, and the abbey can be visited together with the nearby Brahms House. Bus 201 runs directly there.
