Tips from the Community
In Althof, the ruins of the old monastery barn, a Cistercian building, are worth exploring. It is considered the oldest monastery agricultural building in Mecklenburg. A few meters further on, a chapel rises, which owes its current appearance to a 19th-century renovation of the old building. A gravestone commemorates Woizlawa, the wife of the Wendish prince Pribislav, who is buried here.

The Detlefsen fishing farm is located near Bad Doberan. The ponds formerly belonged to the Cistercian monastery and were leased out at the beginning of the 20th century. And of course, enjoy delicious fish at the on-site restaurant.

It is actually a very nice and slightly hidden resting place. From under the trees you have a beautiful view of the hilly landscape. In the evening the sun shines in.

The first monastery in what is now Doberan was founded on this site in 1171. It only existed for a few years. In 1186 the monastery was founded on the site of the present-day cathedral in Doberan. The origins of the chapel here date back to the 14th century. However, the chapel was given its current appearance in the 19th century by Möckel.
