List of Dominican monasteries
A Dominican monastery is a branch of the Dominican or Preacher Order ( Ordo Praedicatorum ). Because of the color of the order's habit (black coat over white habit), the monasteries were sometimes also called "Black Monastery".
Monasteries with six (formerly twelve) or more religious form a convent under the direction of a prior , who is elected for three years and confirmed by the next higher superior, the provincial superior . In the Middle Ages, a convent also had a lecturer . Smaller branches are called "Domus" (house). The convents and houses are united to form provinces , today a total of 42.
The list includes former and existing monasteries of the order.
