The former St. Catherine's Monastery in Stendal was a gothic monastery of brick. It was founded in 1456 by Elector Frederick II of Brandenburg as a Benedictine nunnery. After the introduction of the Reformation, the monastery was converted in 1540 to the ladies pin, which was dissolved in 1945.
The Katharinenkirche is used today as a concert and event hall. Here you can also see the original of the Stendaler Rolands. In the former monastery buildings is the Altmärkische Museum.

St. Catherine's Monastery in Stendal is an impressive brick Gothic complex that today houses the Altmark Museum and the St. Catherine's Church Music Forum and serves as a versatile event venue. Originally an Augustinian convent dating back to the 15th century, the surviving complex includes the church, parts of the cloister, and the monastic buildings, which display a blend of medieval architecture and neo-Gothic elements, making it ideal for concerts, exhibitions, and conferences.
