A permanent exhibition that brings monastic history to life
At the Augustinian Canons Museum in Markt Indersdorf, the permanent exhibition unfolds a remarkable art experience between order history, monastic architecture, and regional memory culture. The historical site in the former sacristan's house and the adjoining gate tower combines museum curation with authentic spatial impact.

Between liturgy, art, and lived history
The collection leads through the development of the monastery complex from the 12th century to the present day. Liturgical vestments, tools, paintings, sculptures, and graphics illustrate monastic life as well as the pastoral work of the provosts and canons. Art historically, this opens a view of a spiritual center that intertwined religious practice, education, and economic organization.

A museum for cultural education and historical depth
The section on the complex usage after the dissolution of the convent in the 18th century is particularly impactful. Documents and images show the Salesian Sisters, the Sisters of Mercy, as well as the burdensome war and post-war period with usage by the National Socialists and later by the UNRRA as an international children's center. This creates an exhibition that not only informs but also connects aesthetic experience with historical reflection.
