Kloster Vinnenberg, Benedictine monastery in Warendorf, Germany.

The monastery complex stands within the Vinnenberger Busch nature reserve, surrounded by protected landscapes and woodland areas north of Warendorf.

Founded in 1256 by two nuns from the Cistercian monastery of St. Aegidii in Münster, the monastery was initially named Mons Mariae before becoming Kloster Vinnenberg.

The monastery church features Gothic tracery windows and contains a modern chancel from the 1960s, decorated by notable German artists.

The former monastery buildings now function as a retreat and education center, offering individual and double rooms for guests seeking spiritual guidance.

The monastery houses a Stockmann organ built in 1965, containing 15 registers across two manuals and pedals.
