In 1203 Lippold von Escherde donated the church and four farmsteads in Groß Escherde with the confirmation of Hildesheim bishop Hartbert for the foundation of a Benedictine monastery. In 1236, this monastery was relocated to the present location on the Hildesheim Forest, which was then called Bovingehusen. 1264 is the name change in Escherte occupied [1].

In 1296, the monastery was spun off from the parish of Betheln and the Archdeacon. A built in Eddinghausen Vorwerk was dissolved in 1324 again. In 1441 a reform by Johannes Busch took place.

Very nice operator, small but nice outdoor area "in the garden".
