St. George's Abbey, Stein am Rhein
Museum
😠 The admission is 5 CHF. The monastery is empty. It just consists of empty rooms. Some rooms have some old wooden closets. One room was nicely painted. It was waste of time. The description of the rooms was not in English. If they are taking money, at least put an English panel. They don't even have...

👍👍 In 1256 the convent of the "Cordeliers" was founded, of which very little remains today, as the current building in Baroque style dates back to 1712-1725.
