Doberan Abbey, Cistercian monastery in Bad Doberan, Germany.
The monastery spans two square kilometers, featuring red brick buildings, including a Gothic church with high vaulted ceilings and intricate medieval decorations.
Founded in 1171 by Prince Pribislav and Bishop Berno, the monastery relocated to its current location in 1186 after destruction of the original site.
The Gothic church contains significant medieval art pieces, including a high altar from 1300 and a crucifixion altar dating back to 1370.
The monastery grounds include a landscaped park with ponds, streams, and 200-year-old trees, connected by 1.4 kilometers of preserved medieval walls.
The monastery complex includes an octagonal ossuary from 1250, making it one of the earliest preserved bone houses in northern Germany.
