Description

Reichersberg Abbey is a monastery of the Innviertel Congregation of the Austrian Augustinian Canons.
It lies on the Inn River in Reichersberg, Upper Austria.

The nobleman Wernher von Reichersberg converted his possessions into a monastery in the 11th century.
It has been owned by Augustinian Canons since then.
Wernher and his wife Dietburga donated their castle to the canons regular for use as a monastery in 1084 after their only son Gebhard died young.
In the first few decades of its existence the monastery went through several changes of hands.
Although the monastery lay within the diocese of Passau, it became the property of the diocese of Salzburg.
The Archbishop Conrad I of Salzburg, who "tolerated no hireling or dissolute priests", appointed the like-minded Gerhoh provost of the monastery in 1132.
Conrad gave various tithes to Reichersberg, "except for the canonical portion of the parish priests". He reserved the right to dispose of the priest's portion to avoid disputes with the canons.
