Redemptoristen Klooster Wittem

The Redemptorist Monastery Wittem is a monastery in the village of Wittem. The monastery is known, among other things, as a place of pilgrimage for Saint Gerardus Majella and Our Lady of Perpetual Help. The monastery and the monastery church, located diagonally opposite Wittem Castle, are both national monuments.

Saint Gerardus Majella was beatified in 1893 by Pope Leo Xlll and has since been venerated alongside Mary in Wittem. This veneration made Wittem an important place of pilgrimage from the 1920s.

There is also a monastery bookshop with a wide range of books in the field of spirituality and philosophy of life and a world shop. There is also an extensive activity program and weekly guided tours. More than 100,000 people visit the pilgrimage every year.
