In contrast to other chronicles by Heinrich Murer (1588-1638, from
1614 on a Conventual at the Carthusian Monastery of Ittingen), this
entirely chronicle of Hauterive Abbey (FR) is not by Murer’s
hand, but was probably only commissioned by the monk from Ittingen
to be created at Hauterive Abbey. Regarding the content, the
manuscript consists of two parts: the history of the monastery and
a list of ecclesial events. The former begins with Abbot Girard
(1138-1157) and ends with Abbot Petrus (end of the 16th century);
the latter pertains to the years between 1500 and 1510.
