Not far from the Deutschordenskommende Langeln (Northern Harz), a host or holy blood miracle occurred in Waterler (later: Wasserler, today: Wasserleben) north of Wernigerode in 1231, the fame of which moved the Bishop of Halberstadt to set up a Cistercian monastery on site at the end of the century to donate holy blood, which was settled with nuns from Wöltingerode Monastery and is documented for January 20, 1300. Thanks to the blood miracle, the Heiligenblutkloster developed into a prosperous place of pilgrimage. It was destroyed in the German Peasants' War in 1525, but the nuns were able to return to the monastery, where they later increasingly leaned towards Protestantism. During the Thirty Years' War they became Catholics again in 1627 and, although plundered by the Swedes, remained so until 1650. Then the monastery finally passed into Protestant ownership. The monastery complex was used as an estate and still exists as such today.

I haven't seen anything of the former monastery, but the small church is clearly located in the middle of the village.
