Kloster Sielmönken, Religious monastery in Lower Saxony, Germany.
Located between Uttum and Freepsum, approximately ten kilometers northwest of Emden, Kloster Sielmönken features traditional monastic architecture and design elements.
The monastery, initially dedicated to Saint Martin and later to Mary, transformed from a Benedictine establishment to an Augustinian canonry in 1444.
The monastery received substantial donations from local chiefs and private individuals, indicating its role as a center of religious life in East Frisia.
The former monastery grounds now contain a farmstead, with archaeological findings including bricks and everyday items from its active period.
The bell from the monastery church, crafted by Arent van Wou in 1508, currently resides in the church of Canhusen.
