Kloster Hude, Cistercian monastery in Hude, Germany.

The ruins of Kloster Hude display Gothic architecture with six pointed arches along the south wall and a triforium with broken arches.

Established in 1232 as a daughter abbey of Mariental, the monastery functioned until 1536 when the Protestant Reformation led to its dissolution.

The monastery served as the burial site for the counts of Oldenburg and maintained facilities for pottery making, weaving, and brick production.

The von Witzleben family currently manages the estate, which includes the converted abbey house and an adjacent building open for visits.

The monastery walls contain fragments of medieval construction techniques that demonstrate the transition from early brick manufacturing to Gothic architectural elements.
