Haus der Stille

The name says it all: a place to slow down in an increasingly fast and noisy world, a resting place for body and soul. Soothing silence for people seeking times of inner and outer calm.

For more than 40 years, a community has lived and worked here, whose spirituality is strongly influenced by Francis and Clare of Assisi, by their contemplative mysticism and rootedness in God, as well as their openness to all creation, and by Vincent Pallotti's spirituality, with his democratic, inclusive approach to all people. We offer people an opportunity to pause: relaxation, inner reflection, space for personal questions and searching, encounters with oneself and with others.

Guests looking for accommodation as part of an excursion, a bike tour, or a vacation are also warmly welcome. The atmosphere of silence, the spacious garden, hiking trails, and the opportunity to participate in our prayer and meditation times create a special space for relaxation and recuperation.

Some of our community members are experienced pilgrims, and we look forward to exchange and encounters with like-minded people!

The Mariazellerweg via Mureck as well as the bike path LB8, Stiefingtaler Höhenweg, pass by our house. Treat yourself to a rest at the House of Silence. Everything from overnight stays with breakfast to full board is possible.

If you are looking for accommodation of a special kind – then you are right at the House of Silence!
