Maulbronn Monastery UNESCO World Heritage Site


If you are anywhere near Heidelberg or Frankfurt, please take the time to visit this amazing historical site.  I expected a series of austere rooms with not much to see, and I was wrong.
You will be thrilled if you are curious about how people in the middle ages built large structures from stone. There is a museum room showing construction tools and techniques.
Your neck will be tipped upwards nearly all the time if you are interested in architectural ceilings in churches and romanesque/gothic hallways.
We didn’t have a meal or snack inside the property, but there are several choices for both if you are hungry. There are gift shops, a small bookstore, an herb store, and a pharmacy. The bathrooms were modern! I feel like the photos speak for themselves.
