The "Landesweingut Kloster Pforta" is located in Bad Kösen-Saalhäuser in the German wine-growing region of Saale-Unstrut. In 1137 (one year after Eberbach Monastery was founded), Cistercian monks settled not far from Naumburg and founded the monastery of St Mariae ad Portam. As early as 1154, the Köppelberg was mentioned in documents as the monastery's first vineyard. The complex developed into one of the richest monasteries in the East Thuringian region. It owned land in 192 locations with 260 hectares of vineyards. The end of the monastery came in the 16th century with the Reformation.

Winery

The roots of today's winery go back to the Augustinian monks of the Naumburg Moritz Monastery. In the 14th century, they cultivated vineyards on the north-west bank of the Saale in the Saalebogen between Bad Kösen and Naumburg. A hermitage was built as accommodation for the monks working in the vineyards, from which "Saalhäuser" is derived. In the German Democratic Republic, the estate had the status of a "state-owned vineyard". After reunification in 1993, the business was taken over by the state of Saxony-Anhalt, the vineyards were reduced and the cellar and storage rooms were moved back to the historic Saalhäuser buildings in 2002. Bastian Remkes has been the managing director since the beginning of 2020 and Olaf Stintzing is the cellar master.
