Monastery Goldenstein: New Development Regarding Nuns

Harald Schiffl, spokesperson for Provost Markus Grasl, who is responsible for the three nuns, confirmed a report by the "Salzburger Nachrichten" to the APA. According to this, a proposed solution was made at a meeting on Wednesday, which the nuns still need to agree to.

End of Social Media Activities Demanded

"Now it's up to the sisters," Schiffl told the APA. Grasl, who presides over the nuns as Apostolic Commissioner, ties his approval for the three nuns to remain in their former convent to certain conditions. The cloister, the enclosed part of the convent, should henceforth be respected again and thus no longer accessible to non-order persons. There will be a guest area. Medical and nursing support as well as spiritual assistance by a priest will be provided. As a condition for staying, the cessation of social media activities - the rebellious nuns have caused a worldwide stir - and the settlement of a legal dispute are also required. In the event that the condition of the three elderly women deteriorates, they would be registered at the Elsbethen nursing home and placed on the waiting list there, Schiffl said.

Representatives of Nuns at Meeting

In addition to Schiffl, two representatives of the nuns and Elsbethen's mayor Matthias Herbst (ÖVP) participated in the meeting on Wednesday as mediators. The spokesperson for the provost assumes that the decision of the three nuns regarding the agreement will be made "soon."
