Kloster Fraulautern, Augustinian monastery in Saarlouis, Germany.
The monastery complex includes a Baroque church and educational facilities, situated along the banks of the Saar River in Saarlouis.
Founded in 1120 as a Benedictine abbey under Mettlach Abbey supervision, the institution transformed into an Augustinian convent for noble women in 1142.
The monastery housed daughters from noble families across regions, providing education and spiritual guidance through a community of Augustinian canonesses.
The former monastery buildings now serve as Grundschule im Alten Kloster, offering primary education with administrative services available on specific weekdays.
Princess Soubise, Anne Victoire Marie Christine de Rohan, lived in exile at Fraulautern from 1758 to 1763 during political tensions.
