Franziskanerminoritenkloster Fritzlar, Gothic monastery and church in Fritzlar, Germany
The Franciscan monastery complex includes a two-nave Gothic hall church with high buttresses and tracery windows without colored glass.
Established in 1237, the monastery remained active until 1811, with a brief interruption during the Reformation period in the 16th century.
The monastery served as both a religious center and an educational institution, running the Latin school Gymnasium S. Bonaventurae after the Jesuits.
The former monastery buildings now function as a retirement home, while the church serves as the Protestant city church since 1824.
The church features a crucifixion group from 1320-1330 above its south portal and contains Renaissance tombstones from the former cemetery.
