Kloster Raitenhaslach
The Raitenhaslach monastery was founded in 1143. The water-rich location was ideal for the specific cultivation by the Cistercians, including in the form of pond management. The Cistercians ate a meat-free diet as pescetarians, so a sufficient supply of water and the possibility of extensive fish farming were essential. The monastery´s property grew rapidly through donations. It owned a number of villages and even a winery in what is now Lower Austria.
The House of Wittelsbach, residing in the nearby Burghausen castle, took on the role of sponsor and caretaker of the monastery in the mid 13th century. In the 15th century the monastery church served as a burial place for the ducal family from Burghausen, and at the beginning of the 16th century it was particularly Ludwig "the Rich" who supported the monastery in the fight against the Reformation.
Over the centuries, the monastery has been rebuilt and expanded several times. Construction activity was very lively in the 18th century, when the monastery church was given its present form for the 600th anniversary of the order and was converted from a Romanesque basilica into a Baroque church.
In 1803 the monastery was dissolved in the course of secularization, but only the lucrative parts of the monastery, such as the brewery, could be sold, the majority of the buildings were demolished. The immense inventory were sold to the highest bidder. Furniture and art objects to wealthy citizens and the nobility, and agricultural equipment to farmers in the area.
The Baroque monastery church became a parish church in 1806.
