Neuenzell (also Neuenzelle or Neuenzell Monastery ) was a small Benedictine monastery in Unteribach . It was not until 1814 that the name Unter-Ibach emerged from Neuenzell , in contrast to Ober-Ibach, which until then was always called Ibach and was always subordinate to the St. Blasien monastery, while Neuenzell originally belonged to the Lords of Tiefenstein . Today the church and rectory of Unteribach stand on the site .
