The Holy Cross Monastery in Rostock is an important historical site in northern Germany with a long history. Walking along the ramparts, you can discover the site and find some beautiful quiet places for a break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
In 1270 the Holy Cross Monastery was founded by Queen Margaret of Denmark, the wife of Henry Borwin III, the Prince of Rostock. It originated as a Cistercian convent dedicated to the veneration of the Holy Cross. Around 1300, about 20 nuns lived in the monastery. However, the influx was so great that as early as 1354 the number of residents had to be reduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
