Beschrijving

One of the oldest religious communities in the country flourished in the northeast corner of the county from 1732 until 1813 under the leadership of Pietist Conrad Beissel (1691-1768). Practising Beissel's doctrine of hard work and self-denial, the celibate members, known as brothers and sisters, worked 18hr a day and slept on narrow wooden benches. The tour takes in the temple and the house of the brothers and sisters and includes a video.
