The former Benedictine convent with its church in Preetz is one of the region's most important cultural monuments. It was founded in 1210/11. Since the Reformation (1542), the convent has been under the care of the Schleswig-Holstein knighthood, who transformed it into a women's foundation, which still exists today and is administered by the convent council.

The former Benedictine monastery with the Preetz monastery church is one of the most important cultural monuments in our country and a gem in the Plön district. It was founded in 1210/11 by Albrecht von Orlamünde in honor of the Virgin Mary and John the Baptist. With the motto ora et labora, nuns of the Benedictine order led the monastery to economic, intellectual and cultural prosperity. Since the Reformation (1542), the monastery has been in the care of the Schleswig-Holstein knights, who converted it into a women's convent that still exists today and is managed by the monastery board - the monastery provost and prioress. The Preetz Noble Monastery is located 16 km southeast of Kiel in the Plön district, on the B76 - nestled in the idyllic Holstein Switzerland. The grounds of the Preetz Noble Monastery are accessible at any time, so feel free to come along for an exploratory walk. However, please understand that the grounds of the houses cannot be entered as they are all privately owned or rented out. The monastery church can only be visited with a guide.

The monastery church can only be visited with a guided tour. You can find detailed information about the monastery/events/guided tours at this link: https://klosterpreetz.de/

and we always thought that witch-craze was reserved for the Harz

Beautiful narrow forest path along the Schwentine. Also highly recommended if you want to go to Gut Rastorf, as you avoid the incline on the sandy path (Rastorfer Weg), which is not so easy to navigate.

The Benedictine monastery was founded by Albrecht von Orlamünde in 1210, but moved several times before reaching its current location after 50 years. The monastery church has existed since 1340 because it was destroyed by fire. There was also an infirmary on the site to heal the sick. With the dissolution of the monasteries during the Reformation, the Preez monastery was converted into a convent for women. Unfortunately, the church is not open to the public, except by appointment. From the outside, however, the monastery is definitely an eye-catcher!

Worship service is Sunday at 10:00 a.m.

The Schwentine meanders idyllically through forests and meadows and invites you to take a short break to enjoy the beautiful landscape.
