Tips from the Community
This former monastery church, the ruins of which still bear impressive witness to the former size and splendor of the abbey, was not dedicated to one of the many people we venerate as saints, but rather the ONE God in THREE persons - God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and God's Holy Spirit - was chosen as its patron saint. Father Reinhard Körner writes about the mystery of the Holy Trinity: "Among the great prayer-givers in the history of Christianity... I found prayer texts in which each of the divine three was explicitly addressed - in the same prayer. When I tried to recite the texts, I could sense that these people had not only had God the Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit in mind individually - they were addressing a divine community. And it seemed to me that they could only do this in their written prayers because they did it otherwise, quietly in their hearts."

This former monastery church, the ruins of which still bear impressive witness to the former size and splendor of the abbey, was not dedicated to one of the many people who died as martyrs (witnesses of faith) for their Christian beliefs, or who we venerate as blessed or saints because of their exemplary way of life. Rather, this parish has chosen God himself - in the "Holy Trinity" - as its patron saint. According to Christian teaching, we believe in ONE God who exists in THREE persons - God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and the Holy Spirit. The following description can be found on the EKD (Evangelical Church of Germany) website: "The word tries to express the seemingly impossible, namely that God is three and one at the same time. To understand this, it helps to consider how people have experienced God throughout history: as a creator who loves his world and people like a father loves his children. As a God who became human in Jesus Christ, his Son, and shared human life. And finally, as a God who is still present and alive among people in the Holy Spirit."

This site now houses an agricultural high school. No matter which road you take to get there, it will be pleasant and surrounded by nature. Ideal for taking an invigorating break. Castle built in the 17th century by the Count of Louviers, perhaps from older elements. The outbuildings (outbuildings, stables, chapel) date from the 18th century: the large stables were built in 1736, the chapel was remodeled in 1771. The dwelling was extensively remodeled in the 19th century; at the start of the 20th century, the architect Lisch restored and enlarged it by adding a square pavilion to the northeast. The regular garden visible on the 18th century plan later became an irregular garden. In the 17th century, the poet Madame Deshoulières (1637-1694) stayed there. Successive owners include the Grimouville family, the Hanivel family, the Clermont-Tonnerres, the Marquise de Kerkoent, the Marquise de Tourzel, governess to the children of Louis XVI, the Duchess of Lorges, the Cro family.
