The youngest of the Slovene Carthusian monasteries at Pleterje was founded by Count Herman II of Celje in 1407. The founding charter is preserved in the Archives of the Republic of Slovenia (ARS). The monastery was dissolved in 1595, but revived between 1899 and 1904. Older documents confiscated by Josef II in the 18th century are today also preserved in the ARS.


The old monastery architecture is not preserved, apart from the church of St Trinity and parts of some buildings. The church (which is only open for groups) presents a unique type of Gothic architecture in Central Europe. A multivision system presents the history of the monastery and the life of the monks to visitors.

The monastery incorporates a rich library and a collection of some 44 oil paintings from the 17th and 18th centuries, which are attributed to the Flemish, French, Italian and German Masters. A collection belonging to Dolenjska Museum is also installed in the vestibule of the church.

It is also possible to purchase a range of garden produce and other products here, including the famous Pleterje pear brandy.

Adjacent to the monastery is an open-air museum:
