Lindow Monastery

Zehdenick Monastery was a convent for Cistercian nuns founded around 1250. After almost 300 years, it was converted into a Protestant convent in 1541. The buildings were destroyed in the Thirty Years' War, except for some vestiges. The preserved buildings today house church and cultural institutions.

The Protestant Church of St. Nicholas was built between 1864 and 1866 in the neo-Romanesque style by the architect Friedrich August Stüler on behalf of King Friedrich Wilhelm IV (1840-1861). It replaced a previous one, which had stood there since 1796, on the site of the Baroque church destroyed in the great city fire (1788) and donated by the electress Louise Henriette d'Orange. After being destroyed during the Second World War, the church was rebuilt in its present form in 1952.

The monastery of Kyritz is a former Franciscan monastery dating from the 13th century. The Franciscan monastery was dissolved in 1552 with the arrival of the Reformation in Kyritz in 1539. By 1781, the monastery buildings had become dilapidated after decades of careless use. From 1995, the remaining buildings were restored and the monastery site now serves as a museum of the history of the town, a tourist information centre, a building for events and a public library.
