The Meschede Abbey in Meschede in Sauerland was founded in Carolingian times as a women's monastery. In the 14th century it was converted into a convent of male canons. It existed in this form until secularization in 1803/05. Since then, the collegiate church has been used as a parish church.

Saint Walburga

The relics of Saint Walburga were likely brought to Meschede by King Conrad I between 911 and 918. Since then, Meschede has been a center of her veneration to this day. Born in England in the early 8th century, Walburga took over the Heidenheim monastery founded by her brother in 761 and added a convent for women. She is one of the most important women of her time. Walburga is considered the patron saint against eye diseases, as evidenced by the Walburga oil. She is the patron saint of sailors, farmers, and women in childbirth. Believers also invoke her intercession in cases of illness, epidemics, famine, crop failure, and rabies.
