 | 's Hertogenbosch: Gregoriushuis |
Huis van de Heilige Gregorius van de Broeders van het Gemene Leven, sometimes called 'Bossche
fraters'. Founded 1425 in 's Hertogenbosch by
brothers from the Gregoriushuis
Zwolle. Their church was dedicated to the Virgin Mary
and Johannes Baptista. In 1469 the community was transformed into a
college of canons, directly governed by the bishop. In 1623, after
some years of trouble, the community was disbanded; their house and
their books became property of the Abdij van Berne.
During their flourishing period the brothers had a scriptorium with a
large production for other churches etc. in the region.

Literature
Membra disjecta
Some Berne fragments bear a mark of the
Gregoriushuis; some of them, however, formed parts of manuscripts
prepared before its founding in 1425 (see:
De Loos: De liturgische
handschriftfragmenten ...).
