The Cartusian is a must-see in Molsheim, a former episcopal city, situated on the Alsace wine route some twenty kilometres from Strasbourg.
It is an ancient monastery located in the heart of the historic city centre. It is one of the rare intramural Cartusian monastery, since the rule of Saint-Benedict required the monks to live in complete silence. The convent buildings and the large cloister were restored by some «Volunteers of the Chantier de la Chartreuse». Some cells have recovered their original furniture. Not to be missed, the model of the monastery and the stained glass windows of the Linck brothers in the cloister.
