Franciscan Abbey Church, Prenzlau

The abbey church of the Franciscans was built between 1235 and 1250, after the arrival of the Franciscans in Prenzlau from 1240 onwards. After the complex changed hands several times, the church was consecrated again in 1598 and was given the name Church of the Holy Trinity. From then on, the Lutheran congregation used the building. In 1735 the buildings of the surrounding monastery were demolished and only the abbey church was preserved. Around 1970, the monastery church was abandoned and became increasingly dilapidated. It was repaired and reopened in 1995.
