Fraterherren St. Michael
Monastery in Rostock, Germany, dating from 1401
Michaeliskloster is a former monastery building in Rostock, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany.

In April 1942, the monastery was reduced to ruins after a British bombing raid completely destroyed it by fire. The eastern section was restored in the 1950s, and a United Methodist congregation was relocated there. In 1994, the historic rear façade of the west wing was reconstructed using replica form bricks and specially sized bricks designed to match the characte
