Franziskanerkloster Engelberg, Miltenberg

Monastery in Großheubach, Germany, dating from 1630

Engelberg Friary (Kloster Engelberg, also Kloster Engelberg über dem Main) is a Franciscan friary in Grossheubach in Bavaria, Germany. In the past, a pilgrimage dedicated to a figure of Mary, documented as far back as 1406, was administered by the Capuchins after 1630. Following secularization in the early 19th century, the Capuchins eventually left and the Franciscan Order took over the premises and caring for the pilgrims. The friary is (partially) open to the public.
