The former Gnadenthal Abbey is located about two kilometers north of the village center of Niederwil on the banks of the Reuss River. Since the end of the 13th century, the women of the community lived according to the rules of the Cistercian order; incorporation took place in 1394. The abbey existed until the Aargauer Klosterstreit in 1841 and again from 1843 to 1876. After a temporary use as a tobacco and cigar factory, a nursing home has been established in the abbey since 1894, which was supplemented by modern buildings and is now called "Reusspark - Zentrum für Pflege und Betreuung".
The MUSEUM GNADENTHAL lets you immerse yourself in an interactive way in the eventful history of the former Cistercian convent and in over 100 years of nursing history.
