Adelheid von Markdorf
Adelheid von Markdorf (* before 1267 ; † 1303 ) was an abbess of the free worldly Buchau women's monastery in what is now Bad Buchau am Federsee .
Adelheid von Markdorf came from a noble family that has been in Markdorf and the surrounding area since the 11th century . She was the daughter of Oswald von Markdorf.
As abbess, she is first clearly attested in a document in 1267 in which she approved the sale of the properties of the Buchauer Damestift to the Cistercian convent of Baindt , to which her (presumably immediate predecessor) Mechthild von Bienburg had retired and now lived as a nun.
Documents prove her term of office until 1299. According to the tradition of the monastery, she died in 1303.
