According to a manuscript in Andechs Monastery. In the monastery of Andechs "... more than a thousand people were staying, all the rooms were full, one leaning against the other. It was winter, and there was no stove, no bed, and often not a crumb of bread in three or four days, while the soldiers, just as hungry, always asked us for bread." There are hardly any other historical events in German history that have more contemporary records than the Thirty Years' War. The manuscript of Abbot Maurus Friesenegger from the Benedictine monastery of Andechs is one of the most harrowing documents of those years: Friesenegger describes the terrible events around the Holy Mountain and the associated village of Erling. He reports on atrocities committed by foreign and his own soldiers, fires, destruction, natural disasters, plagues of mice and wolves, famine, the outbreak of dysentery and the plague, and provides an almost apocalyptic picture of those times.
