history

The Benedictine convent Saint-Nicolas-du-Port founded a daughter monastery in Rosheim (25 km southwest of Strasbourg ) in 1862 , which still exists today ( Rue Saint-Benoît 3 ). The neo-Gothic chapel dates from 1898. From 1863 to 1939 the sisters maintained a boarding school for girls. Today they live from the production of wafers and the reception of guests in the H ôtellerie La Paix-Saint-Benoît . They pray in a special way for the construction of Europe and attract guests from all European countries.

From 1939 to 1945 the monastery took in the Ottmarsheim sisters , who had to leave their monastery due to the war.
