Monastery Kadaň [ Klášter ]

Convent of Franciscans by the Church of the Virgin Mary and Fourteen saint helpers. The construction of the church started in 1473, building of the monastery was initiated in 1494-1506. In 1950 the monks were expelled from the convent and afterwards it was used by the State Archive and since 1972 by the Museum of history and geography of Chomutov. In the interior of the church we can find one of the most remarkable work of arts - tumba of one of the donators of the monastery Jan Hasištějnský of Lobkovice by outstanding Late-Gothic sculptor Ulrich Creutz.
