The monastery Vyšší Brod with its own patrimonial jurisdiction

In 1822 the saintly Abbot Isidor Teutschmann (1801 -1827), the last abbot of Lusatian descent, succeeded in freeing the monastery and its property from the rule of the Duchy of Český Krumlov.  It had belonged to this Duchy since the House of Rožmberk had died out, but the cooperation between the secular souvereign and the monastery had never been good. Now the monastery obtained an independent domain with its own patrimonial jurisdiction, which lasted up to the tumultuos events of 1848.
