Since 2000, the barn has housed the Klostergalerie (Monastery Gallery), which is run by the town of Zehdenick. Its impressive architecture, with barrel vaults and historical ambiance, makes the Klosterscheune a popular venue for weddings, seminars, and conferences.

The Cistercian convent of Zehdenick was founded around 1250 by Margraves John I and Otto III of Brandenburg and their sister Mechthild. According to legend, the impetus was a Eucharistic miracle from 1249: An innkeeper had buried a consecrated host to boost her beer sales. When she repented and the host was recovered, bloody soil was found – an event interpreted as divine. This "blood miracle" made Zehdenick a place of pilgrimage and motivated the founding of the convent southeast of the town on the Havel River.

The path is nice to ride, even for racing bikes. I don't understand what these narrow sections are for.
