    The Augustinian convent in Glindfeld near Medebach was built after 1298. In 1499 it was converted into a Kreuzherrenstift. It existed as such until it was abolished in 1804.

    In 1179, the archbishop of Cologne, Philipp I von Heinsberg, confirmed in a document the fiefdom of a "desert court on the Ruhr" to the "custelhergensis ecclesia". However, the nuns were first mentioned in a document in 1275. In 1294, the Grafschaft monastery transferred its main farm in Glindfeld to the Küstelberg monastery. In return, the nuns undertook to elect their provost from Kloster Grafschaft.[1]
