SPIRITUAL TOURISM - EDUCATION AND ENCOUNTER This year's Monastery Days are being held under the heading "EXPERIENCE LOCATION CLOSTERY". After the reception to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Association of Friends and Sponsors of Doberan Monastery on Friday, September 20, 2024, we can look forward to interesting contributions. The potential that our monastery complex offers as a PLACE OF EXPERIENCE CLOSTERY should be examined, recognized and further developed. The small town of Bad Doberan cannot do this alone. We want to learn from the experiences of other monasteries in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and from experts who are particularly successful in the contemporary mediation and experience of monastery sites. The Rehna Monastery from Northwest Mecklenburg and the museeon office from Berlin as designers of cultural spaces for everyone will report on this. KLOSTER DOBERAN ERLEBEN - the effects of the new findings of the Berlin building researcher winterfuchs together with the research of Münsterkustos Martin Heider on the medieval processes in the farmhouse - the bakehouse mill with granary - on the building process and the later use will be summarized by the association's chairwoman Sabine Krahn-Schulze. The architect Rene Kunz will present initial plans for the use of the medieval baking hall as the town library and the medieval writing room - the scriptorium. Afterwards, you can trace the traces of the Middle Ages during a tour and gain an impression of the progress of the building project. As a contribution to the 25th anniversary of the Association of Friends and Sponsors of Doberan Monastery, we will be able to enjoy a concert with VOX NOSTRA in Doberan Minster after the final service. The Doberan Monastery Days 2024 will conclude on Sunday with an excursion to the patrionate churches of Steffenshagen and Retschow in the vicinity of our monastery. Participation in the conference is free of charge.

For many centuries, the Cistercian monks shaped the landscape around the monastery. Traces of this cultural landscape have been preserved to this day and represent an important cultural-historical testimony. The walk leads from the farmstead with the monastery mill via the monastery vineyard, the quarries and the deep lake to the Schafhof, a former Maulbronn farmstead.
