A Benedictine monastery was founded before 1322. The monastery was rebuilt in Baroque style by K. I. Dienzenhofer. It is a national cultural monument. The era of Baroque was the time when the Benedictine abbacy of Břevnov and Broumov was developing successfully in all respects. Having overcome the disastrous effects of the Thirty Years' War, the abbacy, especially under the abbots Tomas Sartorius (1663 - 1700) and Otmar Zinke (1700 - 1738), reached a very good economic status, partly through increasing the extent of corve and partly due to its own intense business activities. This enabled further building of costly monasterial premises, residences and churches.

Thus, all the churches were reconstructed in Broumov, especially the Gothic abbey and also the monastery itself (both destroyed by fire), after the drawings of a master builder, Martin Allia. The terraces and the courtyards of the monastery were reconstructed and rebuilt under the supervision of an outstanding architect, Krystof Dientzenhofer, after whose designs the new monasterial grammar school and the apothecary's were built. Last but not least, at that time some of the plans and designs of Kilian Ignac Dientzenhofer (the best architect of Baroque in Bohemia) were finally materialized; these trends reached their top form in the radical reconstruction of the Broumov monastery in the years 1728 - 1738.

Monastery church of St. Adalbert
The church dates back to the first half of 14th century, was rebuilt in Baroque style by Martin Allio in 1684 - 1694. There are Rich interior decorations: stuccos by Soldati, fresco by J. J. Steinfels, sculptors M. Jackel and K. Hiernle. The altar paintings in its six lateral chapels were made by V. V. Reiner.
