Minorite monastery in Český Krumlov

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

The Minoritenkloster Krumau is a former monastery complex in Český Krumlov comprising three convents: the Minorite, the Poor Clares, and the Beguines. The church of the Body of Christ stands between the two female convents, and the complex is managed by the Knights of the Cross with the Red Star.

The monastery was founded in 1350 by Katharina, widow of Peter I von Rosenberg, following the Prague Abbey of Saint Agnes as its model. Major renovations between 1649 and 1681 shaped its present appearance.

The church displays Gothic altars and 15th-century paintings depicting religious scenes. Visitors can observe the artistic interior that reflects multiple building periods.

The complex reopened on 28 November 2015 after a reconstruction costing nearly 327 million korunas, and part of it now serves as accommodation. The gardens are terraced, with a herb garden, vineyards, hop garden and vegetable and dye beds; the remains of the Chapel of St Anne, built in 1555, are marked in the courtyard.

The Chapel of Saint Wolfgang, consecrated on 16 September 1491 by Benedict of Waldstein, Bishop of Cammin, also served as the chapter house. Its Rococo paintings of scenes from the saint's life were made in 1781 by Jan Václav Tschöpper.
