Talk:Early history of Switzerland

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I was not aware that the Fraumuenster monastery was in existence before Louis the German gave it to his daughters. If that is the case, my corresponding entry in the Zürich article needs to be corrected. dab 07:57, 12 Oct 2004 (UTC)

I have that info from the Fraumünster-Gesellschaft. Maybe needs verification? Lupo 08:15, 12 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Most sources claim the convent was founded in 853, including [1]. But whether that is an oversimplification, I cannot judge. [2] just states that the "documented history" of the convent began in 853. The document itself is shown at [3]. Lupo 08:44, 12 Oct 2004 (UTC)
