Visiting Kanaan

Take Time Out...

… from a hectic daily routine? Kanaan is a quiet place for prayer, with nooks and crannies named after Biblical places and events specially created for time alone with Jesus. The Garden of Jesus’ Suffering especially is an open invitation to silent prayer and meditation.

Group Visits

School classes and confirmation classes, seniors, students and prayer groups … all are welcome to visit Kanaan!

If coming for a group visit: Please write or call beforehand to arrange a suitable date – especially if you wish a guided tour across Kanaan and hear more about the story of our community and our everyday life.
