Monastery for the Order of the Poor Clares, who especially admires Saint Clare of Assisi (1193-1253) as its founder and ruler. It remained the only monastery of this order in Mecklenburg. Richly endowed with land, it quickly became a major convent. At the top was usually a daughter from the Mecklenburg princely house. A monastic chronicle written in Low German tells in detail about the fortunes of the monastery. The transcript made by the former Franciscan monk and reading master of the nuns, Lambrecht Slaggert from Stralsund between 1522 to 1533, is a unique testimony of Northern European monastic history.
