Grosscomburg Monastery (Kloster Großcomburg) -one of Europe’s gems – stands strong and majestic, high above the Kocher valley. It is known for its two precious treasures: its gold-plated antependium and its Romanesque wheel chandelier. Grosscomburg was founded as a Benedictine monastery in 1078 on the site of a castle. In the 12th century it experienced its first golden age, under Abbot Hartwig. The entire complex, complete with fortified curtain wall, forms an exceptionally harmonious ensemble.
