The Carthusian monastery of St. Salvatorberg (lat. domus montis Sancti Salvatoris) in Erfurt was a Carthusian monastery of the Carthusian order and existed from 1374 to 1803. It was located south of the old town near the Löbertor. Construction began in 1372 and the church was consecrated in 1375.
The priors Ambrosius Kummer and Leopold Wohlgemut carried out major alterations and new buildings of the Charterhouse between 1702 and 1728. The baroque monastery, privately owned since 1805 and converted into a cotton factory and residential buildings, was destroyed by fire in 1845. Only the church with its baroque façade built in 1728 survived the catastrophe.
