Hermetschwil Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

The women's convent has existed since the 12th century, and its heyday was in the 16th century. After being closed and used as a children's home, the Hermetschwil Monastery was raised to an abbey again in 1985. Nine sisters still live in the monastery today and sell products from their own production (candles, honey, tea, ...) in a small shop. You can find all information about visiting the facility at bremgarten.ch/kloster.

A covered wooden bridge spans the Reuss near Bremgarten. The first bridge at this point was built in the 13th century, the current one dates from 1953. On the left bank of the river you can visit the Bollhaus and the museum in the former Bruggmühle hydroelectric power station.

View of St. Martin's Monastery

Highlight • Viewpoint

Those who hike through the Reuss floodplain landscape will see the magnificent St. Martin's Abbey on the height of the Dominilochsteg. It lies slightly above the Reuss riverbank and shapes the architectural scenery of the nature reserve.

The jammed Reuss created a five kilometers long and 350 meters wide lake, which is today a water bird sanctuary. The marshes and islands are a habitat for rare waterfowl. Ornithologists with cameras and binoculars watch the birds on elevated viewing areas and in this birdwatching stand. With a little patience, you can watch many species of birds throughout the year.
