Zinna Abbey was a Cistercian monastery founded in 1101 near Jüterbog in Brandenburg, Germany, constructed in the Brick Gothic style characteristic of the region. The monastery stood until its demolition in 1553. The site was later repurposed by Frederick II of Prussia, who established a weaver's village on the former monastic lands, which became known as Kloster Zinna and remains part of Jüterbog today, approximately 60 kilometers south of Berlin.
