Augustinian canons monastery Jasenitz
The St. Mariae Abbey was a religious establishment of the Augustinian Canons in Jasenitz , now Jasienica, in what is now the Polish part of Western Pomerania .
history
In 1260, Duke Barnim I of Pomerania gave a piece of land near Ueckermünde to the Augustinian Canons of St. Victor in Paris , which is assumed to be the beginning of the monastery. In 1276 it was moved to Gobelenhagen , probably Hagen (Tatynia). The Jasenitz site was first mentioned in 1331. In 1334 ownership was confirmed, and in the following years the monastery was reformed by the Augustinian canons of Neumünster .
Hardly any news has come down to us from the following 150 years. Soon after 1486, Duke Bogislaw X. replaced the convent with canons from Möllenbeck Monastery . After 1531, probably in the course of the Reformation in 1534, the monastery was dissolved.
The valuable library was first placed in the library of St. Petri Church in Wolgast , then with this in the University Library of Greifswald . Ruins of the church have been preserved from the monastery buildings, which were converted into the residence of the Pomeranian dukes after secularization and used as a hunting lodge .
