Tegernsee Abbey, Benedictine abbey in Tegernsee, Germany
The monastery complex includes Saint Quirinus parish church and several wings housing cultural institutions along the eastern shore of Lake Tegernsee.
Founded in 746 by brothers Adalbert and Ottokar of the Huosi family, the abbey maintained influence throughout Southern Bavaria during the Middle Ages.
The monastery contributed to manuscript production, theological works, and educational development while housing a brewery that produces Tegernsee Lager Beer.
The former abbey structures now function as Schloss Tegernsee, featuring a brewery and museum sections that remain accessible to visitors throughout the year.
Major Hannibal von Lüttichau negotiated with SS troops in 1945 to prevent the bombardment of the abbey and town by American forces.
