900 years of Beuerberg Monastery: The Diocesan Museum is celebrating with a large programme.
These include guided tours, workshops, concerts and a flea market.
Beuerberg – For 900 years, the Beuerberg monastery has towered over the Loisach and has shaped the country and its people for centuries.
The Freising Diocesan Museum took this anniversary as an opportunity to dedicate a special exhibition to the Augustinian canons who came to “Puriberg” in 1121 and worked there until secularization in 1803.
Now the anniversary will be celebrated at the weekend with a festival of the two monastery patrons Peter and Paul and the publication accompanying the exhibition will be presented.
