Klaarland Priory

In 1970, six nuns from the Abbey of Our Lady of Nazareth at Brecht started a new foundation: first in the district of Kiewit in Hasselt and, since 1975, on the present site in Bocholt.

On each day there is considerable time foreseen for mental reading, Lectio Divina.

Throughout the years some small businesses have been developed, such as brewer's yeast, hand-woven ornaments, candles, herb salve, massage oil and greeting cards.

There is also a small guesthouse where women who seek silence and prayer can stay a few days.
