Kloster Gertrudenberg, Medieval monastery and hospital in Osnabrück, Germany.

The Kloster Gertrudenberg consists of multiple buildings, including a 12th-century cloister and an abbess house constructed in 1767 with two stories and a hipped roof.

Founded around 1140 under Bishop Udo von Steinfurt, the monastery operated until 1803 when it was dissolved and later transformed into a military hospital until 1849.

The monastery church functions as a simultaneum, allowing both Protestant and Catholic congregations to hold religious services in the same building.

Located at coordinates 52.2835 latitude and 8.0475 longitude, visitors can find the monastery complex in the northern part of Osnabrück's old town.

The site maintains a Carolingian chapel from the 8th century, which replaced a pre-Christian Saxon sanctuary during the Frankish Christianization period.
