The Fürstenfeld Monastery was founded in 1256 under the rule of “Ludwig der Strenge”, Duke of Bavaria. After having beheaded his first wife on mistaken suspicion of having had an extramarital affair he was sentenced by Pope Alexander IV to build a monastery. Perhaps partly due to his sense of guilt thereafter, he maintained and equipped the monastery favourable until his death in 1294.
The beer garden with its impressive and castle-like baroque monastery backdrop has become popular amongst locals who often come in groups of friends to unwrap their home cooked food in true Bavarian style. For those who do not bring their own food, the restaurant and self service canteen offers Bavarian specialties, often using ecologically grown ingredients from the surrounding farmlands. The beer served is [[Paulaner]] and a [[Maß]] Helles (lager) costs €5,40. The beer garden is part of a 4-star hotel which opened in 2008, also named Fürstenfelder, but situated in a separate area of the monastery grounds.
