Discovered a fragmentary Cistercian Antiphonary (64 fols.) for nuns
4th quarter of the 13th cent.
Provenance: Alsace, perhaps Koenigsbruck
Monastery library of Wettingen-Mehrerau (sine signatura)
Short description, inventory and images of all folios at: www.cantusplanus.at/en-uk/austriaca/Bregenz/

The liturgy is definitely Cistercian.
My co-author and art historian Martin Roland locates the book decoration to the Strasbourg area.
The Linguist Peter Wiesinger locates the German dialect (Niederalemannisch) also to Alsace respectively the Strasbourg area.

Koenigsbruck is not sure, but obvious.
Merci Robert pour ces belles découvertes !
