Monastery pond with school and teaching garden The spacious and lovingly designed teaching garden of the Thierhaupten Fruit and Horticultural Association includes not only an orchard but also a herb garden, colorful perennial arrangements and a rock garden. A gate leads directly to the meadows of the "well water project" in the direction of the monastery pond, past the aurochs enclosure. Total size of the area: 8 hectares Source: https://www.ferienland-donauries.de/sehenswertes/klosterweiher_mit_schul-_und_l-9423/
