Museum Kloster Sankt Georgen

Address

Company description and purpose of company Museum Kloster Sankt Georgen

To this day, the preferred location on the banks of the Rhine at the western exit of Lake Constance gives the Sankt Georgen monastery its romantic, scenic charm. The former Benedictine abbey has been enriching the federal museum landscape since 2012. The authentically preserved monastery is to be presented in a gentle way as a museum in the coming years, without permanently impairing the listed building fabric. It is important to make the sequence of rooms and functionality of the architecture, as well as their meaning and purpose, tangible and tangible in the everyday life of the monastery in the future. Because the ensemble is one of the most important Swiss architectural monuments of the late Middle Ages and the early Renaissance. Founded in the 11th century, the monastery underwent significant renovations and extensions from the 14th to the 16th century due to the influence of the various abbots who directed its fortunes. Interior fittings followed later, which go back to the owners in the secularized but monument-loving 19th century. An example of this would be the wooden ceiling of the winter refectory that was subsequently installed. Today the monastery includes the cloister building with chapter house, refectories, dormitories, abbot rooms and abbot chapel. Of particular importance are the late Gothic cloister and the so-called ballroom, built under the last abbot, David von Winkelsheim (1499-1525). The ballroom contains wall paintings from the early Renaissance, which are unique in the Swiss cultural area north of the Alps.
