Lindow’s history is inextricably linked to that of its monastery. The latter was probably founded around 1230 by the Counts of Arnstein, who also went by the title “Counts of Lindow”. The Reformation came in 1542 and the monastery was converted into a Protestant convent. It was one of the richest monasteries in the Brandenburg Marches up until 1638, when its valuable library and documents were destroyed by imperial troops. The old monastery school survives from this period.
