Since the High Middle Ages , the daily convent office was an integral part of the way of life in monasteries and collegiate chapters and foundations . It included not only the Tagzeiten of hours prayer to Holy Office of the monastic community, formed the highlight and was after the third as Levites Office celebrated, in which men in monasteries and clerics pins deacon and sub-deacon the priest assisted.
In the 11th to 13th centuries, a second conventual mass during the day, the missa matutinalis in addition to the missa maior , was temporarily used, starting from the Abbey of Cluny , primarily among Benedictines and Premonstratensians .
In the 19th and 20th centuries, after the secularization of many monasteries and monasteries and the increase in religious orders outside of their monastery that were active in charitable or pastoral care, the missa cantata prevailed as a form of daily convention mass, the levitated missa sollemnis became on Sundays and festive days limited; with the Capuchins , the convent mass was anyway customary as missa lecta , similar to the Jesuits . In the 20th century, the newly created community fair was also permitted as a convention fair in special cases .
The Second Vatican Council determined the concelebration of all priests in a convention as a possible form of convention mass. If the daily convent mass is held in a solemn form - for example with Gregorian chant - this mass celebration is called a convent mass or a monastic high mass .
