Berchtesgaden - Provostry
The Berchtesgaden monastery was founded in 1102 as community of Augustinian Canons by Count Berengar of Sulzbach, a friend of Henry V. The Canons felt nor safe and comfortable in the wild, wooded area - and gave up the place soon after.
They returned with the first Provost Eberwin around 1120 - and started a success story. The monastery became an Imperial abbey in already 1194. In 1380 the provosts achieved the status of an ecclesistical "Reichsfuerst" and in the 1550s they even held a direct vote in the Reichstag assembly as "Prince-Provosts". From the very beginning upto the secularisation of the monastery in 1803 it was open only for the offsprings of noble families, what actually created this political power. In 1810 the territory of the former monastery fell to the newly established Kingdom of Bavaria, so that the House of Wittelsbach could finally transform the monastic buildings into a summer palace.
The former collegiate church "St. Peter and St. John the Baptist" serves as a parish church since 1803.
The most important piece of architecture (for me) is the cloister, At least most of it survived all the time, and even when the House of Wittelsbach converted the provostry into a summer palace, the old closter stayed untouched.
