Konwent Cysterek w Ołoboku, Cistercian monastery in Ołobok, Poland.

The monastery complex includes a Gothic church constructed between the 15th and 16th centuries, with later Baroque modifications and a bell tower from the 1780s.

Founded in 1213 by Duke Władysław Odonic and knight Wierzbięta of Palewice, the monastery received permission from Pope Innocent III through Archbishop Henryk Kietlicz.

The monastic community managed extensive lands including villages of Konarzewo, Pudliszki, Chróścin, Mieleszyn, Ochędzyn, Skomlin, and Łubnice until 1796.

The monastery church now functions as a parish church dedicated to Saint John the Evangelist and remains open for religious services.

The last Cistercian nun, Florianna Wiewiórowska, passed away on February 28, 1864, marking the end of 651 years of continuous monastic presence.
