HOTEL ADALBERT | HISTORY OF THE PREMISES

 

The Hotel Adalbert is situated in an U shaped building, which is the torso of the former convent founded by the Abbot Tomas Sartorius in 1668. Sartorius convent documents the oldest building above ground in the area of the monastery, realised before its great reconstruction at the beginningof the 18th century.

In 1737 the monastery was reconstructed according to the plans of Kilian Ignaz Dienzenhoffer as a monastery hospital and it acquired its present appearance after the demolition of the north wing. Since the beginning of the19th century the Sartorius Convent has served as the administrative building of the monastery and after 1950 the Ministry of interior used it for administrative purposes.A new stage in the life of this historically valuable building began with its recent reconstruction and transformation into a hotel, which bears the name of one of the founders of the Brevnov Monastery, Bishop Vojtech ( Adalbert ).
