Kloster Posa, Benedictine monastery in eastern Zeitz, Germany.
The monastery complex comprises multiple buildings constructed during the last three centuries, situated on elevated ground overlooking the surrounding landscape.
Founded in 1114, the monastery remained active until the 16th century, when its church ruins were later dismantled for construction materials at Zeitzer Moritzburg.
The Kultur- und Bildungsstätte Kloster Posa association manages the site since 2014, organizing educational programs and screen printing workshops throughout the year.
Visitors can reach the monastery by car from highways A9 and A4, by train from Leipzig with a 20-minute walk, or by bicycle through a turnoff from Elsterradweg.
The monastery grounds include a restored historic vineyard from 1998, marking one end of the wine route along the Weiße Elster river.
