"History Monastery Cismar Anno 1231 were banned monks of the Jonanniskloster (Bendiktinerabtei) founded in 1177 after Cicimeresthorp, today's Cismar. I don't want to speculate about the reasons here, it would have had fun with normal life feelings. From 1245 to 1561 there was this great medieval Benedictine abbey here in Ostholstein after the monks of the Lübeck Johanniskloster were finally moved here. The reason for the settlement was probably the currant who was declared holy in 1249. I didn't look for the reason. It's still in an outbuilding today. At the entrance you will find the grave of the German lawyers who died in the plague and respected the Hanseatic city of Lübeck Heinrich von Hachede. The monastery was perhaps also because of the holy source of the destination of many pilgrims, cranes found a resting place in the Neusteiner Church “Hospital Church” [here link] After the compartment was removed in 1561, the facility was used in a variety of possibilities, as a house of estate, residence of the office, seat of the District Council of Oldenburg in Holstein, as a youth residence, accommodation of the labor service and a marine depot, and until 1970 as a youth home and temporarily from the "Freiherr von Stein Gymnasium" in Oldenburg. The Landesmuseums Schleswig-Holsteins uses it as a space for art exhibitions The exterior is very beautiful, clean and well maintained. In all possible corners you will find small interesting things, in front of the parish house are old household appliances, precursors of some of our current kitchens – and household appliances. Unfortunately, we had no desire to enter the church. We only came to the glazed courtyard overlooking the hall of religious practice. We visited the former monastery during the pandemic and unfortunately cannot see too much from inside. That's it again. We just shot a few photos and led through the extensive information material. In front of the monastery in the parking lot is a tree over 150 years old, a oak. Peace oaks 1870 71 are engraved on the devoted granite bags. The circle of support, for the maintenance and use of the plant, provided that I could see the good work for me."
