The medieval Latin name of Benediktbeuern was Buria (adjective: Burana).
Benediktbeuern has a famous monastery, formerly belonging to the Benedictine Order, called Benediktbeuern Abbey, which was founded in about 739. Its name is well known because of the Carmina Burana (´Benediktbeuern songs´) manuscript found there in 1803 and subsequently set to music by Carl Orff. Since 1930 the Salesians of Don Bosco have lived in this monastery." - (en.wikipedia.org 06.09.2021) - Latitude
