history

In the middle of the 12th century , the Augustinian nuns settled on the Mainzer Berg and founded the Hausen Monastery . In documents it appears under the name Husen (1190), Husse (1276) and from 1319 as Ingelheimerhusen . In 1190 Werner II von Bolanden from the ministerial family of the same name held the bailiwick of the monastery.

Since it was founded, the monastery had property near the then Nieder-Ingelheim parish church of St. Remigius .

After the Cistercian nuns lived in the monastery in the meantime , Carmelites took over the monastery and farm around 1435 . The economic and spiritual decline of the monastery went hand in hand with the Reformation . In 1537 , the Archbishop of Mainz, Albrecht, gave his consent for Diethrich von Gauda , the Provincial of the Carmelites , to sell the monastery for 2000 guilders to the Damm brothers and Kaspar Knebel von Katzenelnbogen . The Prior General of the Order, Nicholas, confirmed the sale in Naples on September 6, 1538 .

The remains of the monastery now form the Haxthäuserhof .
