Tennenbach Abbey (German: Kloster Tennenbach) was a Cistercian abbey in what is now the district of Freiamt in the town of Emmendingen, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It was originally named Porta Coeli (Latin: 'Heaven's Gate').[1]
It was founded around 1158 by monks from Frienisberg Abbey, a daughter house of Lucelle Abbey. Tennenbach later became a daughter house of Morimond Abbey and from 1182 of Salem Abbey. The abbot of Tennenbach was also supervisory abbot of Günterstal Abbey, a nearby nunnery, from shortly after its foundation in 1224 until around 1380.[2]
It was dissolved in 1806 and demolished in 1829, though the abbey's hospital chapel from the second half of the 13th century survives.[3] The abbey church was taken down and rebuilt in Freiburg im Breisgau as a parish church dedicated to Saint Louis; this was destroyed by Allied bombing in 1944 and a new parish church built to replace it.[4]
