A grease filter for filtering grease and the use of the grease filter for a bearing in a wind turbine is provided. A grease filter is disclosed for filtering grease used for lubrication. The grease filter includes and inlet to allow the grease to enter the filter and an outlet to allow the grease to leave the filter, whereby the grease flows from the inlet towards the outlet along a flow path. The filter includes at least one magnetic element present in the flow path of the grease to attract magnetic particles present in the grease and deviate the particles out of the grease flow path.
