Polling monastery library

[1] It belonged to the Polling Abbey which was dissolved during secularisation in Bavaria.

[2] The greatest growth rates of books were during the era of provost Franz Töpsl during the Age of Enlightenment.

Before provost Töpsel, 20,000 volumes were shelved in the library.

[2] The master builder of the library was Matthias Bader, the ceiling fresco was painted by Johann Baader, and the stucco was by Thassilo Zopf.

[4] After secularisation, around 1814, the Streicher family bought the building, who used the large hall as storage.
