Das aktuelle Beit Noah-Team.
Our co-worker Paul Nordhausen-Besalel and his team of volunteers take care of the guests in Beit Noah.
They make sure that the accommodations, facilities, and garden provide our guests with a beautiful and relaxing stay.
- The north wing of Beit Noah contains three rooms with five beds in each, a joint bathroom and a special bathroom for the disabled. The south wing is the same, with an additional single room as well as a double room (e.g. for group leaders). The two wings are connected by a communal room and a self service kitchen. Beit Noah is able to accommodate 33 guests in total.
- During the warm season we put up four big tents in the garden. Each tent contains six beds each, allowing for 24 guests altogether. Attached to the tents are restrooms and shower facilities, as well as restrooms for the disabled.
- The double rooms (bunk beds) Maurus and Placidus and the Pax house (five beds) are suitable for individual guests and smaller groups. They are located at the lower end of the garden and have their own restrooms and shower facilities.
- The rooms Maurus and Placidus are located in Beit Benedict, which is an old Arab stone building. It also contains a communal room, a grocery store, and a communal kitchen, primarily for the use of the guests in the tents and the smaller quarters. In addition, Beit Benedict also houses the mosaic room, which is available as a group room upon request.
- The heart and center of the premises is the garden, and particularly the stream that flows through it, which has been dammed up to make a small pool. Here encounter happens naturally. The hot climate has made the pool a favorite meeting place. The pool reaches 120 cm at its deepest point, and is therefore very suitable for small children and disabled people.
- Needless to say, our guests are welcome to share with the monks in Tabgha’s spiritual life, including our worship services, prayers, and the reading of the Word. In addition, guests are welcome to use areas on the lake shore dedicated to prayer and worship, provided they are not occupied by pilgrim groups.
