Kyritz Friary

Only a few walls and ruins remain, although the round-arched window and roof vaulting of the Early Gothic hall church are still discernible.

According to a Bible kept in the town hall until about 1900, if not later, the friary church was built in 1225, although the surviving structural remains are of the second half of the 14th century.

In the same year the friary church and the adjacent buildings passed into the possession of the town of Kyritz under the condition that it should be used for the benefit of the poor.

Among the ruins of the church a small stage for 300 spectators has been constructed for various events such as theatrical performances ("Theaternächte im Klostergarten"), music festivals, classical music concerts and public readings.
