Broumovský monastery [ Klášter ]

Benedictian abbey with the Church of St. Vojtěch. Provostship was founded in 1290 - 1322 by abbot Bavor in the place of former fortified settlement. In 1664 the whole monastery was burned down, later rebuilt, but burned down again. The monastery was rebuilt and extended around 1726 under supervision of K. I. Dientzenhofer. However further fires followed in 1757 and 1779. Madonna of Broumov, outstanding Gothic wood-carving work from the end of the 14th century, is the most famous part of the inventory.
