Church - Abbey Kempten
Kempten Abbey was a Benedictine Monastery in Kempten in the Allgäu, Bavaria. For much of its life it was the Imperial Ducal Abbey of Kempten. Around 700 a monastery — Kempten Abbey — was built, the first in the Allgäu region. Audogar was the first abbot of the new Benedictine monastery. Through the financial and political support of Charlemagne’s wife Hildegard, an Allemanic princess, the monastery managed to become one of the most privileged monasteries of the Frankish Empire. After several ravages by the Magyars, Ulrich of Augsburg, bishop of Augsburg and also abbot of Kempten, began the rebuilding of the monastery and the city in 941. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kempten_Abbey
