The Predigerkloster was a Dominican monastery established around 1234 in Zurich, Switzerland, and dissolved in 1524. Its associated church, the Predigerkirche, ranks among Zurich's four principal churches and was originally constructed in 1231 as a Romanesque structure. The building underwent significant transformation in the first half of the 14th century, with the choir substantially rebuilt between 1308 and 1350, reflecting the evolving architectural preferences of the medieval period. Though the monastery itself was abolished during the Reformation, the church remains a landmark of the city's religious and architectural heritage.
