Augustinerkloster Wittenberg, Augustinian monastery in Lutherstadt Wittenberg, Germany

The building features a Gothic architectural style with a central courtyard, stone walls, and multiple rooms that served as monk quarters and study areas.

Martin Luther resided in this monastery from 1508 and developed his theological ideas here before publishing the 95 Theses in 1517.

The monastery complex includes educational spaces where students gathered to study theology and participate in religious discussions during the Reformation period.

The monastery complex remains closed for renovations until 2026, with exhibitions temporarily relocated to the adjacent Augusteum building.

Katharina von Bora managed the monastery grounds after 1525, establishing a farm and brewery to support Luther, his students, and numerous guests.
