Mariënburgklooster, 19th-century Franciscan monastery in 's-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands.

The Mariënburgklooster spans multiple buildings designed in Neo-Gothic style by architect Jean van Groenendael at Sint Janssingel street in central 's-Hertogenbosch.

Construction of the monastery complex began in 1897 and finished in 1899, replacing an earlier 15th-century chapel that stood at the same location.

The Sisters of Jesus, Mary and Joseph established educational facilities within the monastery, including a teacher training college and vocational schools.

The monastery complex received Rijksmonument status in 2001, recognizing its national heritage value and ensuring its preservation for future generations.

During World War II, German forces used the monastery's cellars for food storage until September 1944, when local residents emptied the supplies.
