The Kloster Untermarchtal in Baden-Württemberg is the motherhouse of the Barmherzigen Schwestern vom hl. Vinzenz von Paul. The community was founded in 1858 in Schwäbisch Gmünd, but moved to Untermarchtal in 1891 to accommodate the rapid growth in the number of sisters[1][2].
The monastery complex includes historical buildings, including the castle with an impressive staircase and stucco ceilings from the 18th century. The associated chapel houses early Gothic sculptures and a high Baroque choir stall from Rottenmünster[2].
The Barmherzigen Schwestern live according to the values of charity and service to others. They emphasize the importance of community and faith and strive to live this spirit in their work and in their encounters with others[1].
The monastery offers various opportunities for contemplation and relaxation. There are monastery and church tours and extensive grounds that invite contemplation and relaxation. The Bildungsforum Untermarchtal is a central meeting point for exchange and communication[4][5].
Although explicit sustainability goals are not mentioned, the monastery indirectly promotes sustainable lifestyles and spiritual development through its monastic atmosphere and the use of the grounds for recreation and contemplation.
The Kloster Untermarchtal is a vibrant center characterized by its rich history, spiritual presence and the promotion of community and charity. It offers a unique space for relaxation, encounter and spiritual renewal.
