Talk:Marienberg Abbey

Vampires

I've changed the mention of vampire to medieval revenant, which is more accurate. The quoted source [1] says that Summer's 1929 book The vampire in Europe, which said there were vampires, got "most of the facts wrong". It then goes on to quote what an earlier (19th century) source says:

"When in the year of 1343 Prussia was suffering from the plague, brother Steino von Netten left Marienburg in order to escape from the danger. However, when he reached Lauenburg he met with the death that he had been trying to escape from. The "Vogt" of Lauenburg arranged for him to be buried the same evening, but the next morning the corpse was found outside its grave. This happened three times. When this miracle had been reported to the "Hochmeister", he sent a "Comthur" to the grave with orders to put his sword through the corpse and to order it to behave itself and stop moving from its place. Only after this had been done, and the corpse had been buried for the fourth time, it came to rest in its grave."

This description is believable, it contains the common themes for medieval revenants. "Vampires" in the sense that we know them today were not invented until the late 18th century. --Stbalbach 06:25, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

Wrong building, chaps

This article is about Marienberg Abbey - see de:Abtei Marienberg. The link from the sentence about the "revenant" refers to an incident that was supposed to have happened in connection with the Marienburg Castle - see de:Ordensburg Marienburg. Marienberg Abbey was part of Austria and is now in Italy; Marienburg Castle was part of Prussia and is now in Poland. I have removed the sentence and the link.Staffelde 23:09, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
