Description


St. Catherine Monastery, Olomouc

The Monastery of St. Catherine in Olomouc, in the Czech Republic, was founded in 1287 for a community of Dominican nuns in 1287, who occupied it until 1782, when it passed over to the Ursuline nuns. The Ursuline Order remained in the monastery until 1951, when it was suppressed and converted to secular use under the Communist regime. It has been since used by the Regional Museum of Olomouc.
