Guided tour of the monastery, founded in 1102, featuring its surrounding wall, church, Staufer mural, and garden (duration: approx. 1 hour).
Founded in 1102 as the burial site of the Staufer dynasty, the original monastery complex—including the church, cloister, outbuildings, and monastery garden—surrounded by a fully preserved perimeter wall, is open to visitors.
The Staufer mural in the chapter house impressively depicts the history of the Staufers across an area 30 meters long and 4.50 meters high. In the monastery church, the Staufer tomb from 1475, located in the central nave, commemorates the Staufers as the monastery’s founders. The wall pillars surrounding it are adorned with depictions of the most significant Staufer rulers.
In the 19th century, Lorch was rediscovered as a medieval monument. For many poets and artists, travelers, and spa guests, the monastery became a Staufer memorial whose fascination endures to this day.
