Die "Geißel der Hebräer" gilt auch als Gründer des Amberger Franziskanerklosters

Johannes Capistranus ist der Schutzheilige der Rechtsanwälte und Militärseelsorger. Und er gilt als Gründervater des Amberger Franziskanerklosters. Doch ganz so heilig scheint der Heilige nicht gewesen zu sein.

von Andreas Ascherl

Heute ist es das Amberger Stadttheater, bis vor 200 Jahren war es die Klosterkirche der Franziskaner in Amberg. Als Gründervater des hiesigen Klosters gilt ausgerechnet einer, der schon von seinen Zeitgenossen "Geißel der Hebräer" genannt worden ist.
