Convent of the Sisters of Charity in Chełmno, Gothic church building in Chełmno, Poland.

The medieval monastery complex includes several buildings with a prominent church dedicated to Saints John the Baptist and John the Evangelist at its center point.

The Cistercian sisters established this religious complex in 1266 under the patronage of Bishop Frederic von Hausen and Teutonic land master Ludwik von Baldensheim.

The monastery contains medieval wall paintings from the 14th century and features vault bosses that demonstrate the architectural craftsmanship of that period.

Located at Dominikańska 40, the convent maintains its religious functions while allowing visitors to explore its architectural and historical elements during specified hours.

The tombstone of Arnold Lischoren from Flanders remains preserved within the monastery church, representing a connection between medieval Poland and the Low Countries.
