a| From 1780 to 1823, the monk Johann Nepomuk Hauntinger was the librarian at the Swiss Benedictine Abbey of St. Gallen. Mainly to expand his library knowledge he took a four-week literary trip to the Bavarian and Swabian monasteries in July and August 1784 with Abbot Pankraz Vorster and Father Beda Pracher .Hauntinger kept a diary about this trip, which provides a unique insight into this time. Amongst others his travel journal describes the natural history cabinet at the Benedictine Abbey of Petershausen, the church architecture and library collection at the Cistercian Abbey at Salem, and the library at the Premonstratensian Abbey in Schussenried. The journal conveys an overall sense of the intellectual atmosphere at South German cloisters in the late eighteenth century. Additionally, it provides information on the types of collections they housed and describes the intellectual networks of monk-scholars such as Hauntinger.
