    I wanted to visit the museum again after years. The building is really nice to look at from the outside and a lot has changed inside compared to back then. You can get in for free and have a look at a lot. A short visit is worth it.

    (Translated by Google) This museum has many exhibits, only the departments of Westphalian furniture and crosses crucifixes contain many noteworthy items. The area is immense, therefore, many different departments, including local artists, special exhibitions, ... the best thing is: free admission, wide opening hours, and very few visitors. Then you can see everything without time pressure and without visitors. If you have time, you can also explore the nearby sensory course. If you want to get married, the location is nice. (Original) Dieses Museum hat viele Exponate, nur die Abteilungen westfälische Möbel und Kreuze-Kruzifixe beinhalten viele bemerkenswerte Gegenstände. Die Fläche ist immens, daher viele verschiedene Abteilungen, davon lokale Künstler, Sonderaustellungen,… das Beste ist jedoch: Eintritt kostenlos, breite Öffnungszeiten, und ganz wenige Besucher. Dann kann man alles ohne Zeitdruck und ohne Besucherandrang sehen. Wenn Sie noch Zeit haben, können Sie auch den Sinnesparcours in der Nähe erkunden. Wenn Sie heiraten wollen, ist der Standort nett.

    Was at the Liesborn Abbey Museum on Saturday October 21st, 2023. You simply have to visit this museum. Just great !! The largest collection of crucifixes in Europe is worth seeing in itself. Furthermore, there is no entry fee - the visitor was free to donate an appropriate amount.

    A historical art treasure of superlatives is presented here in a wonderful new museum in a way that surprises and delights! But not only the Gospel book, which is over 1000 years old, but also the rest of the museum with its great historical exhibits is definitely worth taking a closer look at on a tour, during which the building itself also catches the eye, for example the wonderfully carved staircase from centuries ago old oak. There is currently an art exhibition there on the theme of "Forest, Wolf, Wilderness", with the wolf clearly in the foreground. I know modern art isn't for everyone, but if you're interested in it, you'll love it! The museum shop invites you to browse and the attached cafeteria treats guests to coffee and cake. The lady who served there was extremely friendly and accommodating to us... Last but not least, it should be mentioned that visiting this great museum is free.

    Great Christmas campaign in December, especially for children. As an adult you could also look at the exhibition and architecture by painting on an easel, making crafts for the Christmas tree, stamping wrapping paper and other woodwork.

    Very well maintained complex and abbey. A small but fine and well thought-out exhibition in Liesborn Abbey. We saw one of the oldest Gospels, which is worthy of display in a themed or furnished room. The remainder of the exhibition deals with the history of the abbey and the first abbess, who is associated with Charlemagne.

    (Translated by Google) A really nice museum with various art objects, such as B. Paintings, antique furniture, coins and crucifixes. There was also a special exhibition with weapons, some from the 15th century. There are cookies and coffee. Everything is free. A donation is definitely appropriate here. A very friendly lady sits at the front desk and answers questions. (Original) Ein wirklich schönes Museum mit verschiedenen Kunstobjekten, wie z. B. Gemälde, antike Möbel, Münzen und Kruzifixe. Es gab auch eine Sonderausstellung mit Waffen , teilweise aus dem 15. Jahrhundert. Es gibt Kekse und Kaffee. Alles kostenlos. Eine Spende ist hier auf jeden Fall angebracht. Eine sehr freundliche Dame sitzt am Empfang und beantwortet Fragen.

    Wer auf der Römer-Lippe-Route die zahlreichen Attraktionen für sich entdecken möchte, sollte auch Museum/Abtei Liesborn, in Wadersloh-Liesborn, unbedingt einplanen. Nicht nur der wunderschöne Ort mit seinem Umfeld, sondern auch und gerade das Museum in der Abtei laden ein, die über 800 Kruzefixe und Kreuzigungsdarstellungen u.a. von Bacon, Chagall, Beuys sowie Dali in Augenschein zu nehmen. Ferner vermittelt die Ausstellung einen Einblick in die Kunst und Kultur der Region. Der Eintritt ist kostenlos!!! Täglich geöffnet, außer montags und an Feiertagen.

    (Translated by Google) On the day of the open monument, there was a really interesting and good guided tour. Very informative and super designed. The other exhibitions were very worth seeing. A well preserved monument with charm and character. It was a nice day and worth a visit. (Original) Zum Tag des offenen Denkmals gab es eine wirklich interessante und gute geleitete Führung.

    The museum documents the long history of the monastery and also presents changing exhibitions. There is a huge, impressive collection of crucifixes in the attic. Architecturally, a great combination of the historic buildings and a modern new building has been created. Since 2023, an almost 1,000-year-old Gospel text has been presented in the new building in a very interesting, but also much discussed, way. Very friendly and personable employees. And: free entry! A worthwhile destination for a bike tour or hike. Gastronomy with delicious coffee and a small selection of cakes is available.

    I am thrilled with the new workshop space! Everything was first class organized, prepared and provided. You'll want to take part in every subsequent workshop!

    (Translated by Google) Last weekend I was allowed to musically accompany a civil wedding in the hall of the Liesborn Abbey. The location is fantastically beautiful and the registrar made the ceremony unforgettable with his charm and humor. :) (Original) Ich durfte am vergangenen Wochenende im Saal der Abtei Liesborn eine standesamtliche Trauung musikalisch begleiten. Die Location ist traumhaft schön und der Standesbeamte hat die Trauung durch seinen Charme und Humor unvergesslich gestaltet. :)

    Das war heute einfach ein perfekter Besuch. Nach einem leckeren Stück Kuchen haben wir uns die sehr interessante Ausstellung in Ruhe angesehen und haben dabei sogar durch einen freundlichen Mitarbeiter auch noch zahlreiche Details vermittelt bekommen, an denen wir sonst sicherlich achtlos vorbeigegangen wären. Hierfür nochmals unseren herzlichen Dank.

    Allein die Präsentation des Evangeliars aus dem 12. Jahrhundert ist einen Besuch wert. Siehe Foto. Empfehlung!

    (Translated by Google) Museum is first class, just to name the seminar "photo workshop" wasn't really correct. (Original) Museum ist erste Klasse, nur das Seminar "Fotoworkshop" zu nennen,war nicht so korrekt.

    The waitress at the carnival apparently finds it particularly funny to charge twice as much. These idiots will definitely never get 20€ for 4 shorts from me again!

    It is great.
