Bollschweil Priory

Bollschweil Priory

Bollschweil Priory was a Cluniac nunnery at Bollschweil (formerly "Bolesweiler") in the district of Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It was founded by Saint Ulrich of Zell in or after 1087 to complement the monastery he had founded at Grüningen, later moved to Zell. The nunnery was moved to nearby Sölden in 1115, probably due to the unsuitability of the site.
