Ulingsheide Abbey

Landmark

Monastery in Tegelen, Netherlands

Ulingsheide Abbey was a Trappist monastery in Tegelen, Venlo, the Netherlands, very close to the Dutch border with Germany. It was founded in 1884 as a daughter house of Westmalle Abbey in Belgium, to receive German novices in the wake of the Kulturkampf. The community was merged to that of Lilbosch Abbey in 2002, the house becoming an annex of Lilbosch. As of summer 2020 negotiations were ongoing for the sale of the property to developers.
