Minorite monastery in Český Krumlov, Gothic monastery in Český Krumlov, Czech Republic

The monastery complex includes the Body of Christ Church, two convents, and a garden accessible through a Baroque gate on Klášterní Street.

The monastery was established in 1350 by Katharina, widow of Peter I von Rosenberg, following the model of the Prague Abbey of Saint Agnes.

The monastery church features Gothic altar remnants and figurative paintings from 1400, with major renovations completed between 1649 and 1681.

The monastery underwent substantial restoration work starting in 2014, leading to the reopening of the renovated complex in November 2015.

The Capella of St. Wolfgang, consecrated in 1491, displays Rococo paintings depicting scenes from St. Wolfgang's life completed by Jan Václav Tschöpper.
