Führung über das Klostergelände von Maria Laach

Later, gray tuff from the Eifel and basalt lava was also used. The highlights include the underground crypt and the ante-chamber, called the "Paradise".

On the premises, in addition to the monastery with the guest wing, various monastery businesses are located. The monastery generates its income from these operations. Particularly noteworthy is that there is its own combined heat and power plant, where the abbey also produces a part of its own energy. Through the own spring from which Maria Laach obtains its water, there is also self-sufficiency here.
