A small family reunion, an overnight stay on a business trip, I always find reasons to be a guest in Himmerod and to feel safe as a guest. When I come home after a visit like this, I think the mailbox must be overflowing, as if I've been away for a long time, I'm so relaxed and so far away. Many thanks to the people who make this possible.

The abbey is always worth a trip. The monastery garden is also great with its many apple trees and information boards. Finally, something from the monastery shop and then a delicious piece of cake and a coffee in the little café at the archway...

Where is the supposed charity in this monastery? Wanting to rip off a family who leaves their cattle there to look after their meadows after consultation with the previous manager and now forces them to carry out emergency slaughter in extreme cases if they don't pay the money demanded... Another prime example of why not everyone who canonizes themselves can be trusted... And then the church wonders why people turn away... Not from God, but from the self-proclaimed benefactors...

Unfortunately there is no restaurant anymore and everything around the monastery seems unkempt - I've never seen that there before.

Oops, abbey beer, unfortunately I didn't taste it and didn't take it with me on the racing bike. Next time!
