Dobbertin

Visit of Federal President Rau and Prime Minister Ringstorff to Dobbertin Monastery (2001)

At the time of German reunification , Dobbertin was a dilapidated branch of the Schwerin District Nervous Clinic . At the same time, it was the only monastery complex of the Benedictines in Mecklenburg that was preserved in its entirety . When it was taken over in 1991 by the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Mecklenburg and the Diakoniewerk Kloster Dobbertin gGmbH was founded, Alsleben took over the preservation, renovation and restoration of the monastery in 1991. Many details in its design and the renovation of the monastery complex bear his signature. He organized the Dobbertiner Monastery Days, in which Benedictine monks from the Ottobeuren Monastery , the St. Ansgar Priory (Nütschau) and the Alexanderdorf Monastery also took part. In 2001 he led Federal President Johannes Rau and Prime Minister Harald Ringstorff through the facility. In the same year he received the bronze plaque for Dobbertin in Potsdam: FUNDED BY THE GERMAN MONUMENTAL PROTECTION FOUNDATION , which can be seen at the central entrance of Damenhaus IV.

His personal commitment to the German Foundation for Monument Protection in Bonn and the German Federal Environment Foundation in Osnabrück also gave his support and financial contribution to the renovation of the monastery church and individual women's houses in accordance with listed buildings. In 1994, Alsleben was co-founder (and later treasurer) of the Friends' Association of Dorfkirchen in Not in the refectory of the Dobbertin monastery, which had not yet been renovated . In 1991 he was elected to the first board of the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania regional association for the preservation of monuments. In 2005 he retired. As before, he is dedicated to the local history in the area of ​​the Nossentiner / Schwinzer Heide nature reserve , which is reflected in many of his 247 magazine and newspaper articles. For the Mecklenburg monastery book he worked on the Dobbertin chapter.

After years of research, he found the Domino Cross of the Dobbertin Monastery, which had been missing since 1939, in the handicraft collections of the State Museum in Schwerin . The cooperation with the special needs school in Dobbertin Monastery is very important to him.

Alsleben took care of the technical security and renovation of several village churches for the association Dorfkirchen in Not . Among them were the village church Ruest and the village church Below . In Ruest, he led the conversion of the former village school into the Diakonie residential building for people with autism .
