Dargun, Medieval monastery complex in Mecklenburgische Seenplatte District, Germany
The town of Dargun spans across 117 square kilometers of land, featuring the remains of a Cistercian monastery that later transformed into a palace complex.
The settlement developed around a monastery established by Cistercian monks in the 12th century and became part of the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin from 1815 to 1918.
The monastery church of St. Mary, accommodating 300 visitors, hosts regular concerts and religious services within its restored medieval architecture.
