Nothgottes
Nothgottes ([ˈnoːt.ɡɔt.əs], "Need of God") is a Cistercian monastery and a pilgrimage destination above Eibingen, in Rüdesheim am Rhein, Hesse, Germany. Pilgrimages to the location date back to the 14th century, and have continued to the present day, especially an annual pilgrimage from Kruft that began in 1674. The present Gothic church was built in the 15th century, and later expanded. The site became a monastery of the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin. After monasteries were dissolved in 1813, it served different purposes, including as a monastery of the Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ from 1932, a retreat location for the Diocese of Limburg from 1951, and a home for a Community of the Beatitudes from 2006. In 2013, it became a monastery again, inhabited by Cistercians from Vietnam.
