Tips from the Community
The Achelse Kluis monastery is widely known for its great beer garden with its own brewery and a great selection. At the entrance, there is also an impressive depiction of the death strip from World War I. An electric fence that stretched from Vaals to the North Sea and was put under high voltage. The German army command wanted to prevent spies, deserters, and smugglers with this.

Need a break or just a cup of coffee? It's always busy in good weather, as the monastery is conveniently located on several beautiful cycling routes. There's also a small shop at the monastery where you can buy various abbey beers.

In the 14th-15th century, a new Gothic church was built in Reppel, with a two-aisled nave of two bays. This Gothic church was made entirely of marlstone. The western tower has two sections under a constricted spire (slate). The substructure and plinth are made of fairly roughly hewn limestone blocks. In 1790, the three naves were placed under one roof; the southern nave had already been widened and built of brick. Only the western tower and the choir remain of this small Gothic church. In 1925, under the pastorate of C. Lenaers, the nave of the old church was demolished according to a design by architect J. Deré, and a new nave was built perpendicular to the original orientation, between the tower and the choir, with a choir on the northern side. The church is located within the walled churchyard. The new church is a two-bay cruciform church, with a straight bay choir and three-sided closure. Saddle roofs (slate). Brick plinth with natural stone trim. Pointed arch windows in a profiled brick and natural stone frame, with natural stone tracery. The straight choir bay is blind. Sacristies on both sides of the choir.
