The former Benedictine monastery (1107 - 1787) - a jewel of baroque architecture - was the religious, cultural and spiritual center of the Eisenwurzen. Stucco work of rare beauty and magnificent tapestries of Dutch origin adorn the church. Worth seeing: Losenstein chapel, sacristy and summer choir. Free access to the church, worthwhile guided tour of the monastery by appointment.
