Welcome

Engelberg’s monastery lies nestled in the Alpine landscape. Benedictine educational traditions provide the foundation for today’s school – the Stiftsschule. We are a Christian boarding and day school with a modern educational program. Our school is a place for living and learning. It enables students to take on responsibility. It also prepares them optimally for higher education and for a career in our globalized world. The personal atmosphere of the Stiftsschule encourages the individual development of the young people in our care, and promotes a sense of community spirit.

The years spent sharing classes and living space by day students and boarders alike have resulted in many friendships for life.
