Summary/Abstract: The economic activity of the Canons Regular Monastery from Żagań has not yet been deeply analyzed. The Abbot Trudwin (1325–1347) had to face problems related to the reform of internal and economic life. These changes were met with great resistance from the brothers. A major disadvantageous element was making the managing of the monastery less effective resulting in a change in relations between the Żagań Princes and the monastery. The Żagań Princes supported the monastery until 1342. However, later as the situation deteriorated the monastery was more and more often considered by the rulers as an economic opponent, which led to many disputes, also of an economic nature. In this difficult situation, the Abbot coped with the challenges by expanding the land of the Abbey and obtaining more rent and income.
