Former Cistercian Monastery

Historic monastery complex at the centre of Wągrowiec's Cistercian story.

The former Cistercian monastery is the historic heart of Wągrowiec. The Cistercians shaped the town and surrounding countryside for centuries, and the monastery complex remains the best place to read that past in stone.

Come for the architecture, but also for the way the site explains why a modest town in Greater Poland has such a strong monastic identity. It pairs naturally with the nearby Regional Museum.
