Dominicanenklooster, Gothic monastery in Binnenstad, Maastricht, Netherlands

The Dominicanenklooster features a church with a central nave, two side aisles, and a baroque facade facing the Dominicanerkerkplein square in central Maastricht.

The Dominican order established this religious complex in the 13th century, with the church consecration taking place on September 29, 1294.

After French troops entered Maastricht in 1794, the monastery served multiple functions including military storage, schools, and educational institutions over subsequent decades.

The monastery complex maintained its architectural integrity through multiple restorations in the 20th century, preserving Gothic elements and original wall paintings.

The monastery belonged to the Teutonia province, which extended from the Alps to the North Sea, before joining the Germania Inferior province in 1515.
