Derde Orde van St Franciscus |
In the late Middle Ages many laymen felt attracted to religious life without the wish to live a monastic life. So were Franciscan Tertians and Tertiaries. In course of time some of these houses developed into monasteries; many of them were later on transferred to the Augustinians (Kapittel of Sion or Kapittel of Holland), modelled on Windesheim.
