The monastery was founded in 1240 and was the house monastery and burial place of the lords of Lobdeburg. The monastery church was dismantled in the 16th century and has been in ruins since then. The ruin forms a rectangle almost 40 meters long and almost 15 meters wide. In the summer months, choir concerts and summer theater take place against the impressive backdrop. A year-round visit is possible.

The ruins of the Cistercian nunnery in Stadtroda are well worth seeing.

In addition to what Blumie said, I can say that this ruin offers wonderful photo opportunities. Still lifes and people can be particularly staged there. A must for every ambitious photographer. 🙂📷
