The Chronicle of St. Gall abbey by Heinrich Murer (1588-1638, a
member of the Carthusian Cloister of Ittingen from 1614). According
to his own account, Murer based his work on the writings of St.
Gall religious community member, legal expert and abbey librarian
Jodocus Metzler (1574-1639), among others. The chronicle extends
from the founding of the abbey by St. Gallus until the year 1630.
