The monastery of St. Peter am Madron is a former convent of Benedictine on the formerly Little Madron called Petersberg in Flintsbach . The community is located in Bavaria and is now part of the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising .

history

The monastery , consecrated to St. Peter, was founded in 1130 by Count Siboto von Falkenstein and settled by monks from Weihenstephan Monastery . It was destroyed in 1296 during the battle between Adolf von Nassau and Albrecht von Habsburg for the German imperial crown in the name of Rudolf the Stammler by Count Megingoz von Surberg , only the pilgrimage church remained. Provost Heinrich returned in 1297 and received compensation, but the monastery was not rebuilt. From the 14th century until 1803, Madron was the titular provost of a Freising canon. After 1605 a side chapel was added to the right of the church. In 1803, after secularization in Bavaria, the demolition of the church was prevented by buying it with funds from the surrounding farmers. The last renovation was carried out in 1972.
