Beautiful church with a small park

Its name probably comes from the time when its water was still used to brew beer in the Eldena monastery complex

The remains of the once important monastery are embedded in a park with old trees, including 180-year-old oaks. The main accent of the ruins is the imposing west façade of the former monastery church with the high pointed arch window opening. Caspar David Friedrich painted many pictures of the ruins and thereby sparked a new appreciation, which enabled the complex to be preserved and secured in 1830.

The Eldena monastery ruins were redesigned for Caspar David Friedrich's 250th birthday. Several steles were erected to provide information about the monastery's eventful history. Several benches and new plantings now make the visit even more pleasant. The monastery ruins fascinated Caspar David Friedrich and inspired him to create numerous paintings and sketches. Anyone who enters the complex understands this: an atmospheric, romantic atmosphere emanates from the monastery ruins. An impressive photo opportunity, especially at dusk or in the fog. Alongside the cathedral, the town hall square and the Wieck bascule bridge, it is one of Greifswald's landmarks!

The Bierbach is a stream in the Eldena nature reserve. It was drained just behind the Rehbruch forest area and only flows through the Hohen Graben. Its name comes from the time when there was still a brewery in Eldena. The water needed for this was taken from the Koitenhäger Bach, which over time was given the name "Bierbach".
