THE Large CISTERCIAN monastery of Maulbronn is situated in the northwest of the province among wooded hills and small tranquil lakes. Extensive, solidly constructed and well preserved, the handsome old buildings provide an attractive abode they are spectacular both inside and out, and over the centuries they have formed a whole with their beautiful, calm, green environs. If you want to visit the monastery itself, you step through a picturesque gate in the high wall onto a broad and peaceful square. A fountain with running water is at its center, and there are old, solemn trees. At both sides stand rows of solid stone houses and in the background is the front of the main church with a large romanesque porch, called "The Paradise," of incomparable gracefulness and enchanting beauty. On the mighty roof of the church you can see a tower perched so absurdly small and pointed like a needle that it seems unbelievable It can bear the weight of the bell. The transept, itself a beautiful piece of workmanship, contains as its most precious gem an exquisite...

Maulbronn Monastery ( Kloster M Maulbronn ) is one of Europe's most well - preserved Medieval monastery complexes . It combines a multitude of architectural styles , ranging from Romanesque to late Gothic all in one place - it creates quite a unique atmosphere . Construction of the former Cistercian monastery , cradled in the rolling hills of the Stromberg region , commenced in 1147. It was here that Gothic design was first implemented in the German speaking world . In 1993 , the monastery was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site . IMPRESSIVE COMPLEX WITH A CAPTIVATING INNER COURTYARD Maulbronn Monastery's many buildings are enclosed by Medieval walls and towers . Architectural highlights include the Romanesque monastery church , the Gothic cloister , and the fountain house . The monastery church's entrance hall , the Paradies , takes its name from the custom of painting church vestibules ' walls with scenes from the Fall of Man . In Maulbronn , the last painting was completed in 1522. However , little of this work of art remains visible . The Paradies , the cloister's south wing , and the monks ' refectory were constructed in the late Romanesquel transitional early Gothic style . These structures played a vital role in spreading the Gothic archi tectural style throughout German - speaking Europe .On the 24th,26th,27th of June there is a very wonderful festival and a lot of people in addition to the historical feel that you can feel as if you are living the medieval moments in reality, the food is the historical shops and the clothes of the wonderful people, an experience that cannot be described by its greatness.

يعد دير مولبرون (كلوستر إم مولبرون) أحد أكثر مجمعات الأديرة التي تم الحفاظ عليها جيدًا في أوروبا في العصور الوسطى. فهو يجمع بين العديد من الطرز المعمارية ، بدءًا من الرومانسيك إلى أواخر العصر القوطي ، كل ذلك في مكان واحد - إنه يخلق جوًا فريدًا تمامًا. بدأ بناء الدير السسترسي السابق ، الذي كان مهدًا في التلال المنحدرة في منطقة سترومبيرج ، في عام 1147. وهنا تم تنفيذ التصميم القوطي لأول مرة في العالم الناطق باللغة الألمانية. في عام 1993 ، تم إعلان الدير كموقع للتراث العالمي لليونسكو. مجمع مذهل مع فناء داخلي آسر العديد من المباني في دير Maulbronn محاطة بجدران وأبراج من العصور الوسطى. تشمل المعالم المعمارية كنيسة الدير الرومانية والدير القوطي وبيت النافورة. استمدت قاعة مدخل كنيسة الدير ، باراديس ، اسمها من عادة طلاء جدران ردهات الكنيسة بمشاهد من سقوط الإنسان. في Maulbronn ، تم الانتهاء من آخر لوحة في عام 1522. ومع ذلك ، لا يزال القليل من هذا العمل الفني مرئيًا. تم تشييد Paradies ، والجناح الجنوبي للدير ، وقاعة طعام الرهبان في أواخر النمط القوطي الانتقالي الروماني المتأخر. لعبت هذه الهياكل دورًا حيويًا في نشر النمط القوطي الأرشي القوطي في جميع أنحاء أوروبا الناطقة بالألمانية. زيارة انصح بها بالفعل مكان مليئ بالروحانية والرهبة في الهندسة المعمارية الهائلة. في ٢٤،٢٦،٢٧ من شهر حزيران يوجد مهرجان رائع جدا والكثير من الناس بالإضافة إلى الطابع التاريخي الذي يمكنك أن تشعر به وكأنك تعيش لحظات العصور الوسطى بالحقيقة، الطعام المتاجر التاريخية وملابس الناس الرائعة، تجربة لايمكن وصفها...

Where am I? In the middle ages, or before that era? This Monastery definitely delivered me to ancient times.... There is a whole town around the "kloster", and despite the fact that thd monastery is not used for its purpose anymore, the whole atmosphere is fascinating. Part of the monastery is used by the evangelic church nowadays, while there is a satisfying number of local restaurants, and some of them serve traditional dishes like "maultaschen" (probably a better edition of the famous" ravioli", especially if it is homemade).I will definitely visit the monastery again, as the statues shop was...

Surprisingly well preserved monastery within a larger complex. The visitor center provided good information also in English. Buildings include a bookstore, Apotheke (apothecary) and restaurant. Vineyards grow on the hillsides and they have their own wine available to buy. Parking nearby was easily accessible and there were many walkways to a small lake nearby and to parks. I was especially thrilled that the monastery still serves as a chool tday (Gymnasium) and that it served as an influence to the writings of Hesse, Holderline, and Goethe.

It was a very beautiful place. Very peaceful and calming to be there. I recommend getting the audio guide as it really makes your visit more interesting and complete. During winter it can get very cold, especially when your walking in the church, so I recommend either bringing some extra layers or coming at another time of the year. The toilets are very clean and there is a radiator there (for when you come out of the church frozen like an ice cube 😂😂). I highly recommend visiting this place! :)
