Abstract

The Cistercian monasteries in Esrum, Kołbacz and Oliwa originated from the Clarevaline line. The issue analysed in this article is whether the transmission of memorial sources, especially obituaries, occurred between these convents, and thus whether daughter monasteries assumed the prayer obligations incumbent on the mother monastery. Such a phenomenon can be observed in the case of the convent in Kołbacz, which received, among other things, an obituary with records from the monastery in Esrum. In the case of the Oliwa monastery, reconstructed in the early seventeenth century on religious-historiographical grounds were elements of the memory of prominent members of the Cistercian order and several persons associated
with the Cistercians, including among others Archbishop Eskil, one of the founders of the Esrum monastery.
