Carmelite Monastery, Gothic monastery and history museum in Altstadt, Germany
The Carmelite Monastery features a rectangular arcade cloister surrounding a single-vessel hall church with additional expansions constructed between 1460 and 1520.
Built in 1246, the monastery contains medieval murals depicting the Carmelite order and saints, created by artist Jörg Ratgeb from 1514 to 1519.
The Institute for Municipal History operates within the monastery grounds while the Archaeological Museum occupies the former church section of the building.
The monastery underwent extensive restoration work between 1955 and 1957 to repair structural damage sustained during World War II conflicts.
The north wing contains a refectory designed as a two-aisle hall, while the cellar houses a theater venue called Die Schmiere for satirical performances.
