Ebersmunster Abbey

Thanks to the support of Adalrich, Duke of Alsace, father of Saint Odilia, the monastery flourished.

Much of the Baroque abbey church, now prominent in its own right as a World Heritage Site, was built by the Austrian architect Peter Thumb.

The site was reoccupied in 1829 by a community of Marianist Brothers and Priests, and from 1887 by the Sisters of St Joseph of Saint-Marc.
