Gars Abbey is a monastery on the Inn River in Bavaria, Germany, in the town of Gars am Inn.
It was founded in 768 and has been occupied by Benedictine monks, Augustinian Canons Regular, and most recently Redemptorists.
The monastery was founded in 768 by the cleric Boso from Salzburg for Tassilo III, Duke of Bavaria.
It was dedicated to saints Mary and Radegund and at first was under the Benedictine rule.
The monastery was originally called "Cella Garoz". For centuries it belonged to the archbishopric of Salzburg.
In 1128 Bishop Conrad I of Salzburg transferred the monastery to the Augustinian Canons.
They erected the present monastery building after 1122.
Archbishop Eberhard II of Salzburg took over the advocacies of the Au and Gars Augustinian collegiate churches from their secular lords, the Mödlings.
