Bethlehem Abbey in the village of Bonheiden, Belgium, is a house of Benedictine nuns of the Subiaco Cassinese Congregation. The monastery was built in 1965 as a Redemptorist house but was transferred to the Benedictines in 1975.

Since 30 May 2015 the Benedictines have shared the monastery buildings with a lay community (the Moriya Community).
