Abbey Marienwohlde, Birgittine monastery in Lankau, Germany.
Located along the Old Salt Road, Abbey Marienwohlde consists of multiple buildings dedicated to worship, community gatherings, and residential quarters for nuns.
Founded in 1412, the monastery was established by monks and nuns from Mariendal Monastery near Reval, marking an unusual east-to-west cultural transfer.
The monastery features thirteen altars within its church, consecrated in 1458, and maintains traditional Birgittine practices of prayer and contemplation.
The abbey stands at coordinates 53.6491°N, 10.6957°E, accessible through rural roads while maintaining distance from urban centers.
The monastery developed substantial wealth between Hamburg, Lübeck, and Lüneburg, becoming a motherhouse for Mariakron in Stralsund by 1424.
