Fürstenfeld Abbey

Fürstenfeld Abbey (German: Kloster Fürstenfeld, [fʏʁstn̩fɛlt]) is a former Cistercian monastery in Fürstenfeldbruck (formerly known simply as Bruck), Bavaria, Germany.

Located about 25 km northwest of Munich, the abbey was one of the household monasteries of the Wittelsbachs. Its church, dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, is considered a masterpiece of the late Baroque in southern Germany.
