history

The foundation and its motives

The monastery consecrated to the Holy Trinity was built in 1624. It was founded as part of Duke Maximilian I's efforts to reform the Bavarian Franciscan monasteries, to combine them in a Bavarian Reformate Province and thus to gain greater influence on the order and its monasteries. For years from 1614 he campaigned for Pope Paul V through his ambassador Giovanni Battista Cesare Crivelli , cousin of the then Tölz nurse Giulio Cesare Crivelli . Pope Urban VIII approved Maximilian's plans including the founding of a monastery in Tölz, and so on March 1, 1625 the Bavarian Reformate Province of the Franciscans came into being. The monastery was occupied by Reformed brothers from northern Italy. A plaque in the monastery entrance to the left of the church commemorates her. The convent also operated a hospice .

Expansion measures

Since the original Franciscan monastery church of the Holy Trinity was very popular, after a few years it was too small and was therefore expanded in 1660/61. In 1660 the Mayor of Tölz, Kaspar Reiffenstuel, had an Antonius chapel built, which was stuccoed in 1684 by "Nikolaus Bertho", probably Giovanni Niccolò Perti . When the church and monastery had to be enlarged again, the Antonius Chapel was demolished in 1733.

From secularization to abandonment

The monastery was dissolved on January 25, 1802 in the course of secularization under King Max I Joseph . In 1804 the church was handed over to the magistrate and the library , which had 7000 volumes, was almost completely lost. On August 15, 1827, the subsequent King Ludwig I decided to re-admit the Franciscans in Tölz and other cities. On December 1, 1828, the monastery was rebuilt. In 2008 the Franciscans finally gave up the monastery.
