Wechselburg Priory, formerly Wechselburg Abbey is a Benedictine priory in Wechselburg in Saxony, dissolved in the 16th century and re-founded in 1993.
Dedo V of Wettin founded the monastery, dedicated in 1168. Henry the Illustrious, Margrave of Meissen made a gift of it in 1278 to the Teutonic Order. In 1543 the abbey with all its possessions came into the hands of the territorial prince, Maurice, Elector of Saxony. It was eventually dissolved in 1570.
