The Indersdorf Monastery is a former monastery of the Augustinian Canons and later a monastery of the Salesian Sisters in Markt Indersdorf in Bavaria in the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising .

history

Early days

The monastery of the Augustinian canons, consecrated to the Assumption of Mary, St. Peter and Paul, was founded in 1120 by Count Palatine Otto V. von Wittelsbach . In the 12th and 13th centuries, Indersdorf was a preferred burial place for the Wittelsbach family. The monastery has long been the economic and spiritual center of the area. Here the provost Erhard Brunner and his half-brother, the "Decanus" Johannes von Indersdorf, carried out reforms in the 15th century, which were also adopted by other Augustinian monasteries in Bavaria.

18th to 20th century

In 1783 the monastery was taken over by canons of Munich with the help of a papal bull (dated May 24, 1783). The Salesians, who had to leave their monastery in Munich ( St. Anna ) in 1784, lived in the buildings from 1784 to 1831. In 1831 they moved to Dietramszell .

In 1856 the Sisters of Charity took over the facility under the name of Marienanstalt and operated a children's institution there , which was initially built in Haimhausen in 1854 with support from Countess Viktorine von Butler-Haimhausen.

time of the nationalsocialism

The Sisters of Charity were expelled in 1938 by the National Socialists, who ran a youth education center in the monastery building for the purposes of the National Socialist welfare organization until the end of the war.

The Bavarian Wander- und Heimatdienst (LVW) took over the facility. The purpose of the association was the registration of " anti-social " in an "anti-social index" and their introduction to compulsory welfare institutions. The Indersdorf youth education center was run by Friedrich Goller.

Among others, Ernst Lossa , who was finally murdered, was once a pupil here.

post war period

From 1945 to 1946, the Indersdorf Abbey housed an international orphanage for “ displaced persons ” with the participation of the Sisters of Charity. From 1946 to 1948, mostly Jewish children and young people in Indersdorf were looked after as displaced persons on behalf of the successor organization IRO by the Sisters of Mercy.

In a television documentary by ZDF in 2009, the life of a group of Jewish children was traced. The children were survivors of the Flossenbürg concentration camp . They were liberated by the Americans on April 23, 1945. In a small town in the Bavarian Upper Palatinate, they were first taken in and nursed by residents. And then they came to the monastery in Indersdorf. A collection point had been set up there under US supervision, which was also supposed to offer medical and psychological care to Jewish children from concentration camps. The project of the UNRRA , which ran the reception center, was unique up until then. The mental life of the children should be brought back into balance, they should playfully win back their lost youth.

In 2009 it was documented on film how these children from Indersdorf, who were scattered halfway around the world, came together for the first time at the place of their liberation and met the people who had helped them back then. The children from back then were now older men and some successful business people. In another film from 2018, children from back then tell of the last days of the war, their time in the monastery, and their return home or relocation to other countries.

Around 1000 children found help from UNRRA in Markt Indersdorf between 1945 and 1948.

20th and 21st centuries

At the beginning of the 1950s there was also a housekeeping school and a school for rural women. After the home was closed in 1949, the sisters ran the Vinzenz von Paul secondary school in the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. In 1987, the Congregation of the Sisters of Mercy transferred the entire monastery complex to the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising , which continued the school, for personal reasons . The management of the kindergarten, which was also founded in 1949, was handed over to the Franziskuswerk Schönbrunn in 2003 . In 2016 the diocesan college Vinzenz was founded by Paul of the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising in Markt Indersdorf. It was officially recognized in 2019.
