Chronicle of the Dominican Monastery of Basel and of the Convent of
Maria Magdalena OP in Basel by Heinrich Murer (1588-1638, from 1614
on a Conventual at the Carthusian Monastery of Ittingen). The
manuscript is divided into the chronicle of the Dominican Monastery
and the chronicle of the Convent in Basel. In the first part, Murer
describes the building of the Dominican Monastery in 1233 and the
development of the diocese of Basel from the 13th to the 15th
century. In the second part, Murer turns to the establishment of
the convent in the 11th century and its reconstruction in 1253, as
well as other ecclesial events until 1465.
