A local would say...

Classical music in a medieval ruin, with no roof but the sky — Brandenburg's most unexpected concert hall.

A romantically ruined medieval monastery north of Berlin in the Brandenburg lake district, famous for its Gothic brick architecture. The roofless nave and soaring arches are particularly evocative during the summer classical music concerts held on-site. One of the finest examples of north German Brick Gothic architecture.
