Theres Abbey, Benedictine monastery in Obertheres, Germany
The stone walls and pointed arches of Theres Abbey rise against the Bavarian landscape, displaying centuries of architectural modifications and extensions.
The monastery traces its origins to January 17, 1001, when it was established as a center for Benedictine religious life in northern Bavaria.
The monastery served as a repository of manuscripts and religious texts, contributing to the preservation of medieval knowledge through its scriptoria.
