Stiftung Erzabtei St. Ottilien
About the funder
The Stiftung Erzabtei St. Ottilien was established in 2009 by the monastic community of the Missionary Benedictines. Its purpose is to support projects aimed at the preservation, continuation, and further development of the St. Ottilien monastic village. The foundation's goal is to secure, both financially and ideologically, the diverse tasks of the archabbey in the long term – from the renewal of the Rhabanus-Maurus-Gymnasium and international mission projects to the protection of the listed art and cultural heritage.
