Broumov Monastery – baroque majesty amid sandy landscapes

Since the 13th century, the town of Broumov has been home to a Benedictine monastery complex, which gradually transformed from a Gothic structure into a monumental Baroque landmark under the hands of the Dientzenhofer architects. Today, it invites you on a journey through history, culture, and tranquility in the castle bay of Broumovsko.

How to get here and what to discover nearby
The monastery is located directly above Broumov’s historic center, with parking available nearby. It is easily accessible on foot, by car, or by bus. A visit can be easily combined with a walk through the historic core, a trip to the Adršpach-Teplice rock paradise, or exploring other sacred gems of the Broumovsko Protected Landscape Area – often called an open-air textbook of architecture.

A place where the past speaks through baroque and silence
The Broumov Monastery opens the door to a world of art, learning, and spiritual silence. Every corner, hall, and shadow of an old tree tells a story that shaped the entire Broumovsko region.
