Convent of St. Mariestern, Cistercian nunnery in Panschwitz-Kuckau, Germany.
The Convent of St. Mariestern contains multiple buildings including a Gothic abbey church, bakery, herb garden, shop, and guest accommodations.
Founded on January 17, 1248, the convent has maintained continuous religious operations through centuries of regional changes and developments in Saxony.
The monastery functions as a central institution for the Sorbian minority population, preserving their Catholic traditions and cultural practices.
Visitors can access the monastery courtyard, church side entrance, and shop via wheelchair, while guided tours explain the daily routines of the resident nuns.
The convent's traditional beer, originally brewed on-site until 1973, continues production in nearby Wittichenau under the name Kloster St. Marienstern - Klosterbraeu.
