It was worked on from 1848 to 1852. It was the second Capuchin monastery in the Netherlands, the first is located in Velp and is also situated on Our Monastery Path. The Capuchins were tasked with providing spiritual care for the residents of the hospital, which was then still referred to as a repository for the insane. They also supported the devotion to Mary in Handel. The religious left in 1984. Since then, the monastery has been called Klooster de Weyst and can only be visited by appointment. The monastery garden is usually open to the public. For more information, visit landvandepeel.nl.
