Kloster St. Paul, Medieval monastery in Bremen, Germany.

The monastery complex stood on an elevation of the Bremen dune in the Ostertor district, near the street named Beim Paulskloster.

Archbishop Adalbert I established the Benedictine monastery around 1050, as documented in the chronicles of Adam of Bremen.

The monastery functioned as an economic center of the suburb outside the Ostertor gate, influencing the development of surrounding streets and facilities.

The stones from the demolished monastery were repurposed to pave a road leading to the Warturm after its closure in 1523.

The final abbot, Gerhard Vaget, who died in 1567, has his epitaph preserved in Bremen's Cathedral Museum.
