Cistercian monastery of Cedynia, Medieval monastery in Cedynia, Poland

The monastery complex stands on an elevated slope with stone walls, brick cloisters, and detailed window frames overlooking the Odra river valley.

Founded in the mid-thirteenth century, the monastery operated as a Cistercian nunnery until 1555 when the Reformation led to its dissolution.

The monastery hosted a school for noble maidens and functioned as a center of religious education until the last nuns departed in 1611.

The preserved west wing now contains a hotel and restaurant, offering visitors accommodation and dining options in a historical setting.

The building served multiple functions throughout its history, including a postal inn from 1811 to 1870 and a residence for local landowners until 1940.
