The monastery of Machern is a former monastery of the Cistercian nuns opposite the village of Zeltingen-Rachtig on the left bank of the Moselle. The property is located on the territory of Bernkastel-Kues (district Wehlen) about five kilometers northwest of the city.

In the 13th Founded in the 19th century, it existed until its secularization by the French government in 1802. Subsequently used for agriculture, its baroque buildings gradually fell into disrepair before they were renovated and restored in 1970. Today, the monastery complex is a well-known excursion destination on the Middle Moselle, with a monastery brewery and brewery, wine cellar and a museum.

After Ellinckhuysen's death, the property was inherited by the family of his son-in-law Johann Baptist Grach, who had married Ellinckhuysen's daughter Katharina Josefina. From their descendants, the property passed in 1969 to the winery owner Franz Schneider from Zell-Merl.[9] From 1970, he invested large sums in the church and monastery buildings and had the run-down buildings repaired as part of 20 years of renovation and restoration work. However, the historical structure was also changed by new buildings and fittings. For example, the high longhouse was given an intermediate ceiling and was thus divided into two floors. During this work, the nuns' gallery, which had been preserved until then, was also removed.

In 2000, the Trierer Bürgerverein 1864 GmbH and the Günther Reh Foundation acquired the property and had the preserved buildings renovated until 2004. They then opened the former monastery to the public. The buildings are now home to several catering facilities, a monastery brewery with an attached brewery, a wine cellar and a distillery. In addition, a building serves as a museum, in which on the one hand historical doll and tin toys from the period 1850 to 1925 ar[12]e exhibited, and on the other hand around 200 icons from Russia, Romania and Ethiopia are shown[13]. There are also changing special exhibitions.

Many of the rooms in the monastery buildings can be rented for parties and events. In addition, the registry office Bernkastel-Kues maintains a branch office there. In addition, the Cornelius Chapel can be used for weddings.
