💼 What the programme involves

Together with your team, you'll be living on the grounds of the monastery in Heiligengrabe, that was first built in 1287 and is the only almost fully preserved Cistercian monastery in Brandenburg. Several buildings in the former estate are used by ijgd volunteers to hold seminars. The project also offers you the possibility to experience the monastery as a spiritual place, as a monument and as a place of culture. The work that has been started in the last few years – building footpaths, a play area, cutting and building a stone wall - will be continued this year. There will be craftsmen and your group leaders on-site who will support you with these tasks.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be staying in the seminar building at Heiligengrabe. The group will prepare and cook meals together.

📍 About the location

Heiligengrabe is surrounded by nature, which means there are many things to do in your free time both on the grounds of the monastery and in the rural surroundings. You could go on bike rides, walking tours etc. There is a lake which you can travel to by bike in around an hour. Besides this, you could visit other places over the weekends, such as the historic towns of Wittstock and Neurippin or the metropolis of Berlin (100km away).
