The objective of this paper is to provide a summary of the confraternities of the convent of the Canons Regular of St Augustine in Prague’s New Town with other monasterial convents from the pre-Hussite period. The tool used to conclude confraternities was a confraternity document. With a few exceptions, this was not a jointly-issued document. It comprised two separate documents with the same wording which both convents produced. One of the prominent institutions in the newly established Prague New Town was the monastery of the Canons Regular of St Augustine at the church dedicated to Our Lady and St Charles the Great. There are three extant confraternity documents issued by the Prague convent for other convents of the Order of the Canons Regular of St Augustine, specifically for the convents in Třeboň (1376), Kłodzko (1386), and Kazimierz near Cracow (1412). We also have five confraternity documents issued by convents of the Canons Regular of St Augustine for the Prague convent. These are documents from the convents in Třeboň (1377), Rokycany (1380–1397), Lanškroun (1387), Sadská (1389), and Wrocław (1406). With the exception of the Wrocław monastery document, these documents have the same wording. Using the necrology of the monastery of the same order in Roudnice, the confraternity of the Prague convent with the Roudnice convent was proven. Medieval inventory numbers on the Prague convent documents have allowed us to demonstrate the existence of five or more now lost confraternity documents of convents issued for the Prague convent.
