Mobility

The monastery Ihlow with almost all offers can be explored barrier-free.

You are handicapped and the way to the monastery site is too far for you?

For groups with people with reduced mobility, we offer a shuttle service with our electric monastery mobile. This can be used by arrangement as well as during the opening hours of the monastery café. Simply contact us by phone: 04929 – 90 88 305 or 04929 – 91 59 49.

What is the terrain like for people with disabilities?

Visitors with disabilities can use almost all offers of the monastery "Silent Rooms Ihlow".

The monastery site is certified as barrier-free.

Imagination and exhibition space:
In order for people in wheelchairs to enter the exhibition and devotional space ("Room of the search for clues") below the reconstruction, a stair lift was installed on the south side of the monastery church. A paved path through the evergreen walls, marked with a pictogram, shows you the way. It can be used up to a body weight of around 125 kilograms (excluding a walker). In the room of the search for clues, the monastery association also holds its own wheelchairs.

Would you like to use the stair lift?
Then please contact the monastery café (opening hours Tue-Sat 14-18 and Sun 11-18 o'clock) under: 04929 – 91 59 49.

If you participate in a guided tour, we ask you to inform us in time about the participation of people with disabilities, so that everything necessary for your stay with us can be arranged

Monastery garden/bakery:
The paths to the monastery garden and bakery are paved. In the monastery garden, the ground consists of fine but solid gravel on which you can easily drive with a wheelchair or a walker.

Monastery café:
Located in the historic forester's house directly at the Imagination. All areas on the ground floor can be reached by walkers/wheelchairs. There is also a wheelchair-accessible toilet here.
