Damme Priory, Benedictine priory in Damme, Germany.
The monastic complex includes a chapel, former boarding school buildings, and surrounding farmland in the Oldenburg Münsterland region of Lower Saxony.
The priory, established in 1962 by monks from Münsterschwarzach Abbey, operated on the former Kophanke family farm through a donation by Maria Kophanke.
The religious center maintained Benedictine traditions while operating a boarding school from 1970 to 1983, later transforming into a guest accommodation facility.
In 2017, the complex transformed into a hotel with 70 rooms, conference facilities, and integrated amenities including a daycare center and kindergarten.
A dry-stone labyrinth constructed in 2004 stands in the woods near the priory, marking the beginning point of the Cardinal's Way pilgrimage route.
