The Oelinghausen Monastery, situated in Arnsberg, Germany, has a rich history dating back to around 1174. Initially, it was established as a double monastery, which means it housed both monks and nuns. However, it later evolved into a Premonstratensian monastery, a religious order known for its commitment to community living, self-sufficiency, and hospitality.

This museum offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore the history and culture of the monastery and its inhabitants over the centuries.
