Kloster Lehnin, or just Lehnin, is a municipality in the German state of Brandenburg. It lies about 24 km (15 mi) west-south-west of Potsdam.

Overview

Kloster Lehnin was established on 1 April 2002 by the merger of 14 villages:

Damsdorf
Emstal (Schwina until 1937)
Göhlsdorf
Grebs
Krahne

Lehnin
Michelsdorf
Nahmitz
Netzen
Prützke

Rädel
Reckahn
Rietz and
Trechwitz, incorporated on 26 October 2003

The centre of the municipality is Lehnin. It is best known for Lehnin Abbey, the oldest monastery in the Margraviate of Brandenburg, established in 1180 by Margrave Otto I. The adjacent settlement developed about 1415 out of a market held by the monks outside the abbey walls.

Today, this well-maintained area includes the renovated monastery church and other Gothic buildings.

In addition to tourism, Kloster Lehnin's local economy is supported primarily by

the Evangelical Deaconess House Berlin Teltow Lehnin, a hospital network
Hansa-Heemann AG, a mineral water and soft drinks company
Grand River Enterprise, a cigarette company
Windeck, a metal construction company.

All of these companies are established in the industrial area, Rietz.^[3]
