Greyfriars Abbey, Ystad
The Greyfriars Abbey ((スウェーデン語:Gråbrödraklostret)), sometimes also simply The Monastery in Ystad ((スウェーデン語:Klostret i Ystad)) is a medieval former friary in Ystad, Sweden. Together with Vadstena Abbey, it is one of the most well-preserved medieval monasteries in Sweden. It today houses the church of St. Peter ((スウェーデン語:St. Petri kyrka)) and the Museum of the cultural history of Ystad ((スウェーデン語:Ystad kulturhistoriska museum)).
==History==
According to an inscription from the 14th century, the monastery was founded by a donation by a knight called Holmger and his wife Katarina in 1267 and inaugurated by the Bishop of Reval. From the outset, it belonged to the Franciscan order, who were popularly known as ''grey friars'' (hence the name of the monastery), and functioned as a friary for friars. Throughout the Middle Ages several documented donations to the monastery took place.
In 1532, amidst the ongoing reformation in Denmark, the Danish king Frederick I ordered the Franciscans to leave the monastery. They were however not allowed to leave in peace as the citizens of Ystad took the matter in their own hands and forcibly evicted the monks on 24 March 1532. Subsequently the building was transformed into an almshouse. Little is known of the building's fate during this time, but sometime, probably during the early years of the 1600s, the western and northern wings of the building were pulled down, quite possibly due to a lack of funding. The brick was probably sold as building material and used in the building of some nearby manor or castle.〔
In 1658, Denmark handed over Ystad and the monastery to Swedish authorities following the Treaty of Roskilde. In 1777, the hospital closed and the premises were taken over by the state-owned akvavit distillery, but as the state abolished its alcohol monopoly in 1786 it became used instead as a granary. In the early 19th century the building was left to decay. In 1877, the building was purchased by the city government and plans both to restore and to pull the building down were ventilated. It was only in 1909, however, that restoration works finally began.〔
