Franciscan (OFM)

Until 1517 the Franciscans (Latin ordo fratrum minorum "Order of the Friars Minor") were also called Minorites . In 1517 the Franciscans divided into the Observants and the Conventuals , which are now called Minorites (OFMConv) (see below ). The French denomination was Cordeliers until all French orders were abolished in the course of the Revolution . After the order was divided in 1517, the name (also Cordeliers de l'observance or Observantins) was reserved for the Reformed Franciscan branch. In Poland the Franciscans are called Bernardyni (St. Bernard dogs ). In the Middle Ages, the Franciscans were also called Gray Monks , Gray Brothers , English Greyfriars .
