    It was only under Bishop Philipp von Katzenellenbogen in 1142 that not only was St. Gertrude's Church enlarged, but the monastery building was also completed. He also introduced the strict Benedictine monastic rules to the monastery, which had been founded shortly before.

    Gertrudenberg Abbey is a former Benedictine nunnery in Osnabrück, Lower Saxony.

    It was founded in the first half of the 12th century and existed until 1803.

    The former abbey grounds now house the Osnabrück State Hospital, which was privatized in 2007.

    The former abbess's house and the abbey church with its Baroque high altar, St. Gertrude's Church, have been preserved. It is used by both Catholic and Protestant congregations.
