Our PLUS

Hospitality for your soul

PLUS at Haus St. Elisabeth is our service with a special touch. We want to ensure that your holiday or conference is a success: at a personal and professional level, and, if you wish, at a spiritual one too. We are open to all religious denominations and persuasions. Hegne Convent has developed its own educational programme, taught by the nuns or by external instructors. It offers a wide spectrum of topics for those who set store by practising their faith, an active church, responsibility and solidarity in society.

• Take a guided tour of the convent and the convent grounds embedded in the midst of a unique cultural region at the west end of Lake Constance and gain an insight into the life of the religious community of the Sisters of Mercy of the Holy Cross.
• You are invited to join in the nuns’ prayers in the hotel’s chapel and in the liturgy in the convent church.
• A meditation room, the crypt of Blessed Sister Ulrika Nisch and a room for worship are open to guests.
• Take the opportunity to experience and join in the main festivities in the church year, and (re)develop a sense of the value of celebration and contemplation.
• If you wish, we offer spiritual orientation, personal discussions, and spiritual guidance.
• We meet every Wednesday evening at 8 p.m. for bible meditation in the meditation room. Together, we gather our inner strength in silence, read, listen and study a selected passage from the bible and try to shape our lives accordingly.
• Through our AKTIVpunkt you are invited - depending on weather and season - to guided walking trips in our beautiful nature, to reflect about a text, to Nordic Walking or painting. Maybe you will be delighted to discover your own creativity as spiritual vitality. Please have a look at our infoboard close to our house-restaurant.
