Founded around 1230, the Cistercian monastery has an outstanding framework and Low Saxon brick Gothic. It reveals Gothic art treasures, - cloisters, valuable paintings and cultural devices.

The nuns' choir houses a carved altar from the year 1519 and an elaborate complete painting from 1335. The Gothic tapestry collection from the 14th and 15th-centuy, is a treasure and is being presented from the Friday after Whitsun, during a special festival week.

Especially worth seeing are - apart from the monastery - the old watermill, St. Johannis-church and the village museum in Langlingen ( rural culture and work), Maria-Magdalenen-chapel, barbican estate Oppershausen and the Amtshof Eicklingen.
