Quote Wikipedia:
"Böddeken is a historic settlement in the northeast of the city of Büren in the Paderborn district. The former monastery and today's Gut Böddeken is located in a karst valley on the Paderborn plateau.
The oldest monastery of the Paderborn bishopric was founded in 836 by the Paderborn archdeacon Meinolf as a women's monastery. Only the Corvey Abbey, founded in 815, was older, but soon gained independence from the Paderborn bishop.
In the history of the Principality of Paderborn, the Böddeken Monastery, which was dissolved by Prussia in 1802, was one of the most important religious houses in Westphalia. In the 15th century it was even one of the most influential monasteries in Germany with a European level of effectiveness. "translated by•February 21, 2021
