This is a painting of the Monastery and Church of Our Lady of Mercy of the Teutonic Knights Order in Ljubljana.
Teutonic Order is a Catholic religious order originally founded as military order in the 12th century in Acre. Purely religious since 1929, it still confers limited honorary knighthoods. The order was formed to aid Christians on their pilgrimages to the Holy Land and to establish hospitals. Its members have commonly been known as the Teutonic Knights, having a small voluntary and mercenary military membership, serving as a crusading military order for protection of Christians in the Holy Land and the Baltics during the Middle Ages.
