Kloster Uetersen, Cistercian nunnery in Uetersen, Germany
The Kloster Uetersen complex features medieval architecture with a brick southern wing, a Prioress residence from 1644, and a church built between 1747 and 1749.
Heinrich II von Barmstede established the monastery in 1234 by inviting twelve nuns from Reinbek monastery to create a new Cistercian community.
The monastery transformed into a noble ladies foundation after the Reformation in 1555, allowing unmarried daughters of nobility to live under less strict conditions.
The monastery grounds contain multiple historical buildings, a cemetery called Jungfernfriedhof, and ancient trees that visitors can explore throughout the year.
The extensive landholdings of Kloster Uetersen once stretched from Neumünster to Altona, including various economic enterprises such as brickyards and mills.
