Kloster Appenzell
Appenzell, Switzerland, Switzerland
Kloster Appenzell, also known as Kloster Maria der Engel or Convent of Mary of the Angels, is a historic Franciscan convent for sisters in the town of Appenzell, canton of Appenzell Innerrhoden, Switzerland.
Established around 1604 after adopting the Capuchin Poor Clares reform, it served for over 400 years as a key spiritual center and girls' school until the last sisters departed, evolving into a foundation-run guesthouse with a convent store amid the town's painted Baroque houses.
The site reflects Appenzell's Catholic heritage post-1597 canton split, offering guided tours that highlight its role in local education and monastic life surrounded by alpine scenery.
