List of places owned by the Magdalen convent Naumburg am Queis
The list includes places and parts of places that were owned by the Magdalen convent in Naumburg am Queis . The monastery was founded in Silesia in 1247 . In contrast to the communities in the area, these villages mostly remained Catholic even after the Reformation . From around 1560 the places in Upper Lusatia west of the Queis were subordinate to an administrator of the Meißen diocese based in Bautzen at St. Petri Cathedral . The first administrator of Upper and Lower Lusatia was Johann Leisentrit . Ullersdorf am Queis, located in Upper Lusatia, became part of the Electorate of Saxony in the Peace of Prague in 1635 . With the secularization of the prussian monastery in Naumburg in 1810, its property was also lost. Today all places are in the Polish Lower Silesian Voivodeship .
