Kruisherenklooster

The Kruisheren Monastery or Monastery Sint Aegten is a monastery in the North Brabant town of Sint Agatha. In 1315 there was already talk of a chapel dedicated to Saint Agatha. Around 1371 a few monks came to live near that chapel to operate the chapel. This resulted in the Monastery of the Order of the Holy Cross, whose monks are also called Crosiers. The monastery is still in use, making it the oldest inhabited monastery in the Netherlands.
