Map ↗Aristocratic Fräuleinstift
● Barth
The baroque building complex of the Adligen Fräuleinstift was built between 1733 and 1741 and was founded by the Swedish Queen Ulrike Eleonore. The Adlige Fräuleinstift was founded in 1733 under the self-designation "Bahrtisches Closter"; another contemporary designation is "Adliges Jungfrauenkloster". However, it was not a convent, but a foundation for the care of unmarried daughters, mainly from aristocratic families in the region. Similar institutions existed in Bergen auf Rügen, Stralsund (former St. Annen and Brigitten Convent), Ribnitz (former Poor Clares Convent, now the Amber Museum) and numerous other places. They emerged from monasteries that were dissolved during the Reformation. In many cases, the nuns living here came from families who destined their unmarried daughters for the clergy, as it was not possible for them to remain in the family for economic reasons. With the introduction of the Reformation and the dissolution of the monasteries, this option was no longer available. One solution was to convert the monasteries into secular abbeys. While entry into the monasteries was associated with the taking of vows as a lifelong decision, the nuns did not take any vows. They could leave the convent without special permission in the event of marriage or for other personal reasons. Although life in the convent was subject to strict rules, it was possible to leave the grounds during the day, there were vacations and the possibility of being absent for a maximum of three months each year upon request. A prioress monitored compliance with the monastery rules; the first head of the monastery was Philipina Luise von Wackenitz with the rank of abbess. There was no predecessor institution in Barth, as no monasteries were founded in the town according to the regulations of 1255 (town foundation and early town history of Barth). The path to the foundation of the noble Barth monastery was cleared in 1726 after the Swedish King Frederick, with the direct involvement of Queen Ulrika Eleonora, donated the land and the existing remains of Barth Castle to the knighthood and granted permission to fell timber in the royal forest on the Darß. The monastery was thus located on the site that had been the location of the town quarters of the Princes of Rügen and later the Dukes of Pomerania (Jaromar II, Barnim XIII) since around 1255. The first conventuals moved into the buildings on August 3, 1733. Each convent lady, unmarried and therefore unprovided for women, was provided with an apartment with four rooms, adjoining rooms and a garden plot. There were fixed salaries to ensure their upkeep. As a rule, the right to later entry into the convent was purchased at birth, but by no means all those entitled to it ever made use of it. After the Second World War, the nuns found themselves in a difficult situation. Refugees had to be accommodated in the buildings and with the land reform they lost the estates from which the convent had acquired part of its income. The nuns had to temporarily leave their home, but were soon able to return. In May 1948, the convent was dissolved and passed to the church. In 1974, the buildings were handed over to the town, in 1978 the last nun, Anna-Louise von Stumpfeld, left the premises, the last prioress, Katharina von Hagenow (1882-1952) was buried in the Barth cemetery; the Barth grammar school (Uhlenflucht 5) is named after her. The building complex of the monastery is a three-winged complex made of plastered bricks. The elongated main building consists of a raised central section with a broad central risalit with a triangular gable and bell tower. Ten-axis building sections with high mansard roofs adjoin on both sides. There are also two nine-axis wings enclosing the courtyard on three sides. The entire building complex is surrounded by an unrendered brick wall with a round-arched gateway with a crowned Swedish royal coat of arms and the reconstructed gatekeeper's house next to it. From 1985 to 1994, some parts of the building housed a kindergarten. Since 2001, age-appropriate apartments and rooms for exhibitions and cultural events have been set up in the complex, which has been renovated in accordance with the preservation order. The two-winged baroque complex is the only Swedish foundation on German soil.

Barth Buchholz organ
● Barth
In 2021, the Barth Buchholz organ celebrated its 200th birthday in St. Marien Barth. The impressive instrument attracts hundreds of guests to St. Mary's Church every year for the famous summer concerts. An organ was mentioned for St. Mary's Church Barth as early as 1451, which was rebuilt and extended in 1597 by the Stralsund master organ builder Nikolaus Maaß. Even though it was repaired and modified by Christian Kindt, also from Stralsund, from 1785, it soon no longer met the requirements of the time. Above all, the transfer of Western Pomerania to Prussia in 1815 created a climate for radical changes. The Berlin firm of Carl August Buchholz (1796-1884) was commissioned to build a new organ in Barth. The contract was signed on July 12, 1819, all parts of the organ were completed on February 18, 1821 and it was handed over to the congregation on August 31, 1821. Later, several modifications and extensions were carried out by the Grüneberg organ building workshop in Szczecin. In 1917, a large proportion of the pewter pipes had to be given away for war purposes and were later replaced by zinc pipes. The organ case was made in Barth. The organ façade in its present form was also created after 1856 in connection with a thorough redesign of the church's interior. A last major repair was carried out in 1964 by a company from Görlitz. Between 2001 and 2003, the organ underwent a complete and extensive restoration. The organs in the church in Tribsees (1831) and the Nikolai Church in Stralsund (1841) also originate from the workshop of C. A. Buchholz. The Barth organ has the following specification: HauptwerkOberwerkSmall pedal Pricipal 16Principal 8Principal 16 Quintatön 16Bordun 16Subbass 16 Principal 8Gedact 8Gemshorn 8 Reed flute 8Salicional 8Octava 4 Viola da gamba 8Octava 4Nasard 5 1/3 Nasard 5 1/3Rohrflöte 4Waldflöte 2 Octava 4Fugara 4Trombone 16 Gemshorn 4Nasard 2 2/3Conetta 4 Superoctava 2Flageolet 2 Fifth 2 2/3Larigot 1 1/3Big pedal Third 1 3/5Decima quinta 1Violone 16 Cornet 4foldMixur 4foldVioloncello 8 ProgressionBassoon 6Big Nasard 10 2/3 Harmonica 3-5 bassoon 8 / Hautbois 8Contra trombone 32 Trumpet 8 from c Bassoon 8 Trumpet 8 Manual coupler, stop valve to HW, OW, small pedal and large pedal Lit.: Die Buchholzorgel in Sankt Marien, Barth.

As part of cultural life in Barth, Kunstkonsum is embedded in a network of galleries, arts and crafts markets, and local cultural initiatives.
