List of Christian religious houses in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern

List of Christian religious houses in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern

This is a list of Christian religious houses in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern in Germany, including Rügen, extant and non-extant, and including houses of both men and women. Almost all religious houses were suppressed during the Reformation in the 16th century, except for a few women's houses which survived, some into the 20th century, as Lutheran collegiate foundations for unmarried daughters of the nobility. Since the reunification of Germany in 1990, a Franciscan friary has been established, now located at Waren.
