      The monastery was founded around 1152 by Count Sizzo III of Käfernburg on the Georgenberg near Altenbergen. Between 1186 and 1192, the original mountain monastery of Asolveroth is said to have been moved to the valley. During the Peasants' War in 1525, it was plundered and almost completely destroyed. In 1528, the monastery was dissolved by John the Steadfast.
