Kloster Maria Schutz

Kloster Maria Schutz, Orthodox monastery in Sankt Andrä am Zicksee, Austria.

Kloster Maria Schutz is an Orthodox monastery located in Sankt Andrä am Zicksee in eastern Austria. The building displays Orthodox Christian architectural features and houses religious objects and artworks within its stone structures.

The monastic community was founded in 2014 after the Roman Catholic Diocese of Eisenstadt provided land to the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Austria; the agricultural plot's rezoning was repeatedly delayed, so the monks first settled in a purchased building in Sankt Andrä am Zicksee. The foundation stone for the new monastery was laid on 26 September 2020, with Metropolitan Arsenios Kardamakis, Bishop Ägidius Zsifkovics and governor Hans Peter Doskozil present. Paisios Jung led the community from 2014 to 2022, when Arsenios Kardamakis became abbot.

The monastery upholds Orthodox Christian traditions through regular liturgical services and religious practices that shape daily life here. These Eastern Christian customs are visible in how the community gathers and worships within the grounds.

The monastery stands in the market town of Sankt Andrä am Zicksee in Burgenland, near Lake Neusiedl. The community first occupied a building bought for the purpose while the planned new building awaited rezoning of farmland into building land. The foundation stone for the new building was laid on 26 September 2020.

The monastery is the first and so far only Eastern Orthodox monastery in Austria. Its chapel is dedicated to Saint Bartholomew and is furnished in a typically Byzantine style. The community received a relic of John of Alexandria as a gift from Stanislav Zvolenský, Archbishop of Bratislava, at Christmas 2016.
