Marienfeld Abbey (Austria)

It was founded by Hans Hermann Groër as a sister house of Mariastern Abbey.

Its construction began in 1974 and it was opened on 14 November 1982 by Franz König, then Archbishop of Vienna;[1] the nunnery was declared as independent in 1991.

By 2014, the nunnery had 18 sisters; they made some income through their vestment workshop and used their vegetable and fruit garden for self-sufficiency.
