In the Middle Ages, the Benedictine monastery Dikninge, dedicated to Mary, stood on the site of the large country house. The monastery was a continuation of the Benedictine abbey of Ruinen, which was moved to Dickninge in 1325. There, the monastery was already in possession of a court before 1248.

The Dickninge estate is approximately 75 hectares in size. In the Middle Ages, the Benedictine monastery Dikninge stood on this site. This monastery was a continuation of the Benedictine abbey of Ruinen, which was moved to Dickninge in 1325. Until the 15th century, Dickninge was a so-called double monastery, with separate sections for nuns and monks. After the reform, the monastery was closed in 1602, but it remained inhabited by nuns who remained behind until 1652. The buildings were now in a dilapidated state and were partially demolished.
