The book Locus Fratrum is the first attempt at a systematic
analysis of the architecture and building practice of the last
major medieval monastic order. The core of the book lies in
chapters monitoring the history and building development of the
individual monasteries in the territory of the Bohemian monastic
province. The catalogue part is preceded by chapters summarizing
the historical context of the Observant Franciscans' activities in
the second half of the fifteenth and the first half of the
sixteenth centuries, during which the Observants experienced both
rise and fall. The history of the order is followed by an
exposition on the rules governing the foundation of convents, the
monastic rules limiting artwork and above all the character of the
order's architecture.
