A permanent exhibition that makes history tangible
At the Augustinian Canons Museum in Markt Indersdorf, the permanent exhibition introduces the spiritual, cultural, and scientific world of the Augustinian canons. At the historic site of the monastic complex, an art experience unfolds that places liturgical vestments, tools, paintings, sculptures, and graphics into a dense historical context. The museum was opened in 2014, received the Bavarian Museum Award in 2015, and showcases one of the rare specializations in the Bavarian museum landscape.

Monastic Spaces, Living Memory
The exhibition links the history of the order with the development of the monastery since the 12th century. The connection between sacred object culture and regional history is particularly impressive: The view of monastic life, pastoral practice, and the scientific achievements of the canons lends depth and cultural resonance to the examination of the works.

Between Suppression, Repurposing, and Post-War History
A specific focus is dedicated to the varied use after the dissolution of the abbey in the 18th century. Documents and images explain the work of the Salesian Sisters and the Sisters of Mercy; likewise, the war and post-war period are brought into focus, as the monastery was used by the National Socialists and later by UNRRA. This museum narrative makes the exhibition a place of aesthetic experience and historical education at the same time.
