Ettal Monastery

The village of Ettal is a quiet climatic spa resort with lovely hiking trails into the surrounding mountain region. It is here that Emperor Louis of Bavaria founded the Benedictine Monastery of Ettal in 1330. One wing of the monastery houses the famous boarding school of the humanistic university, and for almost as long as memory serves the other wing has been used for the brewing of beer and distilling of mountain herb monastery liqueur after the ancient recipe of a pharmacist monk.
