Summary/Abstract: The history of the Dominican monastery in Racibórz covers the years 1299–1810. It belonged to the Polish province of the Order of Preachers, from 1706 to the Czech province, and from 1754 to 1810 to the Congregation of blessed Czesław. At the head of this monastery were prioresses. Until 1630, they were elected and approved by provincial superiors for an indefinite period. From 1631, their term of office lasted three years, unless one of the superiors had died before. The author presents a list of 62 Racibórz prioresses and years of their rule and shows the sources of his findings.
