DE - BAVARIA: Interior of Monastery Church at Dietramszell


The first provost of this monastery of the Order of St. Augustine was Dietram, hence the name of the village: Dietramszell. During the first half of the 18th century, the provosts Petrus Offner of Beuerberg and Dietram II of Weilheim converted the monastery into a baroque jewel. In spite of secularisation (around 1804) much of the old inventory was preserved because part the monastery became the retirement home for the Order of Clarissa, which was located at St. Jacob at the Anger in Munich. In 1831 the Order of the Visitation came to Dietramszell and is continuing as a Salesian Convent.
