Summary

A detailed reconstruction of the medieval appearance of the former church of the Klarissenkloster in Dürnstein, Austria, reveals significant architectural elements that survived its conversion into a grain storage facility. The study, focusing on the transition from a two-aisled Gothic hall to a modified structure, highlights the preserved original state of the choir and the lingering medieval features in the nave despite substantial alterations. By comparing these remnants with other monastic churches, the research contextualizes Dürnstein's church within broader art historical frameworks, offering insights into its original design and the impact of later transformations.
