Hamborn Abbey
The Hamborn Abbey is a Premonstratensian in the Old Hamborn district of Duisburg. The abbey is located in the diocese of Essen.
History
Today's abbey church dates back to a small parish church, which was built on an estate called "Ham Burn" by the lords of Hochstaden in the 9th century. The city of Hamborn grew around the medieval monastic establishment
Over time, the landowners leased the land surrounding the farm to farmers who settled here. Soon the name of the estate passed to the entire parish. The parish of Hamborn was later elevated to its own jurisdiction.
In 1136AD Gerhard von Hochstaden acquired Hamborn from the Archbishop of Cologne under the assumption that at the site of the parish church, would be made a convent of the Premonstratensians. After the reconstruction of the parish church into the monastery and the construction of the cloister and the actual monastery, was consecrated in 1170.
After the Napoleonic occupation of the Rhineland this monastery was abolished. While the monastic estates fell to the state, the monastery church of Hamborner population survived as a parish church again. During World War II the monastery and abbey church were destroyed by Allied air raids.
As part of the re-establishment of the diocese of Essen in 1958 Hamborn Abbey was in 1959 again re-established and settled by Premonstratensians. In 1994 it was raised to Abbey again by the Premonstratensian.
Today there are 29 canons are Hamborn Abbey, the youngest of whom 23 year, the oldest 83 years old.[1] and the Abbot's prelate is Albert Thomas Dölken O.Praem.[2] The expansion of the convent has been through the steady growth of the community needed, so in 2011 the new building was inaugurated.[2][3]
