Rohrbach Monastery
Kloster Rohrbach was a monastery of Cistercian nuns west of Oberröblingen in today's Saxony-Anhalt .
history
In a register of the tithe of the Hersfeld monastery , which was created between 881 and 899, Rohrbach is named under the name 'Rurbach' as a place subject to tithing in the Gau Friesenfeld .
The monastery, which was built in the 13th century, was secularized. In the Naumburg Treaty of 1554 it was to be given to Duke Johann Friedrich of Saxony , but he swapped the office of Sangerhausen with Rohrbach for the city and office of Altenburg in Thuringia. In 1558 , Elector August of Saxony left the Rohrbach monastery to Paul Appelman. Evidently, he had been active as the prescribed collector of inheritance and resale interest from the Rohrbach and St. Ulrich monasteries in Sangerhausen at least since 1545 .
