Dear Guest
Here at Als Kloster, it exudes history and cosiness, and it is this very special atmosphere that we want you to experience with us.
The headline is "the good life" - and we put in the effort to be good hosts, decorate with good style and serve good food made from scratch. In the long term, our kitchen will be based on raw materials from our own gardens. A monastery always has both a vegetable garden, an herb garden and an orchard - and we are in the process of re-establishing them.
Whether you walk, cycle, sail or drive here, we are ready to welcome you.
Welcome to us here at Als Kloster.
Marianne and Flemming
Abbess and nun
About Als Kloster
Als Kloster was originally a country estate, which later got a really funny story. Here is where the name
Als Kloster comes into the picture. In 1989, the farm was bought by the Catholic order of the Assumption Sisters, who converted the whole estate into a monastery. Sisters of different nationalities moved in and lived their lives. They offered, among other things, refuge stay for fellow human beings in need of a break from busy everyday life.
With the monastery as a starting point, the new Catholic church in Sønderborg was designed. The bell tower in our courtyard is largely similar to the one in front of the Catholic church in Sønderborg. Our bell has daily called the sisters to mass here at Als Kloster.
In the year 2001 the Assumption Sisters decided to concentrate their activities on Zealand. Here our predecessors took over the monastery, which for the next 20 years formed the framework for three generations of family life and most recently the small cosy Bed and Breakfast. Now it is our turn to write the next chapters in the story, where we make our dreams and plans come true.
And now just a bit of information regarding the sisters...
The Order was founded by Marie-Eugénie Milleret in 1839. Its name refers to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and the latin word assumptio, meaning assumption. The word is also a reference to the Order's call to vocation everyone an education so that the world can become a better place to live.
Time passes, and now the Assumption Sisters are not in Denmark anymore. There is no longer the same need for sisters to run schools or hospitals here, and the sisters have therefore traveled to other monasteries around the world where there is a greater need.
