A beautiful monastery that still shows what it once was. And there is delicious coffee and cake, which you can enjoy inside or in the monastery courtyard under shady trees.

Malchow Monastery is located opposite the town, on the south side of the lake. It was originally a Magdalene monastery, which, after being first founded in Röbel before 1274, became a Cistercian monastery in 1295 and found its permanent location here. Like other women's monasteries in Mecklenburg, it was not completely dissolved by the Reformation, but was converted into a Protestant women's convent.

The cemetery and Engelscher Garden, a park for strolling, are located close to the monastery. The centerpiece is the church, which also houses the main part of the Mecklenburg Organ Museum. The Mecklenburg Organ Museum is unique in the eastern states. Regular demonstrations provide insight into the world of organ music.

The monastery's former refectory also displays works from the estates of artists who have a special connection with the town of Malchow, who were born or worked here, such as Rudolf Gahlbeck, Siegmar Dittner, and Friedrich Franz Pingel.
