St. Johannes Freising is a former collegiate foundation (Domannexstift) on the Domberg in Freising in Bavaria in the diocese of Freising .

history

The pen was in 1319 by Konrad III. the Sendlinger , Bishop of Freising, on the occasion of the new building of the Johanniskirche at the cathedral. It was dissolved in 1803 in the course of secularization . The special task of the chapter was to pray for the salvation of the dead Freising bishops.

Structure of the chapter

The chapter consisted of the provost, the dean and six canons, and three charities (two in the cathedral and one in the collegiate church). The parishes of Altenerding, Thalkirchen , Eschlbach , Ismaning , Attenkirchen , Sendling and Pemmering - today a district of Isen -, the latter parish was reserved for the dean, were incorporated into the chapter. As a result, the posts of pastors in these parishes were entrusted to the members of the chapter (even if the tasks in the parishes were delegated to representatives) and that the beneficiary income of the parish posts was available for refinancing the chapter.

The provost was appointed by the bishop from among the ranks of the cathedral chapter. The function of the dean, who carried out the organizational and administrative tasks, was usually assigned to the cathedral ceremonial.

Collegiate church

The church was subsequently used as a hayloft and the furnishings were almost completely lost. The former altar painting Sermon of John the Baptist in the Desert by Jacopo Amigoni (1682–1752) was later found in the Würzburg Cathedral . In 1841 the church was re-established as a study church.

The Johanneskirche was built between 1319 and 1321, it is located immediately west of the Freising Cathedral and, together with the prince's corridor, forms the northern boundary of the cathedral courtyard. The Gothic church has a high three-aisled interior with ribbed vaults; The Fürstengang runs above the south aisle. The walls are gray with white grouting, remains of wall paintings from the 15th and 16th centuries can be seen.
