Tips from the Community
Definitely worth a visit. Note the four information boards in the spacious parking lot, which tell a lot about the history of the former monastery. The illustration depicting what the monastery looked like back then is particularly interesting. Today, "only" the church building and two outbuildings remain.

Os is not only known for its trains and its train museum, but also for its industrial history. Founded in 1600, Ohs was centered around an iron mill, which was converted into a paper pulp factory in 1893. When the factory closed in 1978 the population dwindled down to about 100. This iron mill/paper factory is now a museum.
