Monastery pond with school and teaching garden The spacious and lovingly designed teaching garden of the Thierhaupten Fruit and Horticultural Association includes not only an orchard but also a herb garden, colorful perennial arrangements and a rock garden. A gate leads directly to the meadows of the "well water project" in the direction of the monastery pond, past the aurochs enclosure. Total size of the area: 8 hectares Source: https://www.ferienland-donauries.de/sehenswertes/klosterweiher_mit_schul-_und_l-9423/

I "just" drove past, on one side the huge estate and on the other side the park with a pond. Even from the street it looks good.

Unfortunately, I don't know whether the pond is open to the public, as it looks like private property to me.
