Kapuzinerkloster Passau, Religious monastery in Passau, Germany.

The Capuchin Monastery stands on a hill above the Inn district of Passau, near the Austrian border, next to the Mariahilf pilgrimage church.

The monastery, founded in 1564 by Prince-Bishop Urban von Trennbach of Passau, underwent secularization in 1803 and was later revived with the return of Capuchins in 1890.

The Renaissance cloister remains intact within the monastery complex, featuring architectural elements designed by Giovanni Spazzo the Younger between 1587 and 1588.

The Heiliggeist Foundation has operated a tavern in the former monastery since 1857, serving wines from their own vineyards to visitors.

The St. Anna Chapel, constructed by Leonard Uttner in 1588, displays Renaissance frescoes from 1590 and now functions as an exhibition space for contemporary art.
