Maulbronn Monastery (UNESCO World Heritage Site)

Highlight • Historical Site

The World Heritage site Maulbronn Monastery is considered one of the best-preserved medieval monastery complexes north of the Alps. The Cistercian imprint on the architecture and the surrounding cultural landscape are almost perfectly preserved. Therefore, when visiting, one should not only see the monastery itself but also explore the surroundings through a short hike or as part of a bike tour.
