The Fischbeck Monastery on the Weser near Hessisch Oldendorf was founded by the noblewoman Helmburg in 955. She built what was then the Canonesses' Monastery in honor of her late husband and in memory of her sons, who also died. Through the centuries, the women's monastery was under special imperial protection, first documented by Otto I. It survived difficult times, wars and economic hardships.
