"The founding of the Servite or Marienknechtskloster falls in the year 1295.
Friends of humanistic studies from Nordhausen have gathered around the learned prior Johannes Huter in the Marienknechtskloster Himmelgarten since 1520/21. Namely Lorenz Süße from Stolberg, the chaplain Tileman Platner and his friend Johannes Spangenberg, rector of the Stolberg Latin School and preacher, as well as the Stolberg captain Wolf von Rabyl. Luther's ideas quickly found their way into this. The important library of the monastery, the only surviving library of all Nordhausen monasteries, was brought to a safe place in Nordhausen in 1525 and, in 1552, transferred to the church of St. Blasii by a council decision. After the secularization of the monastery, the business was continued as an estate. "
