Harsefeld is a municipality situated south-west of Hamburg . Harsefeld has a population of c. 12,500 and belongs to the district of Stade, Lower Saxony.
In 1104 a Benedictine Archabbey was founded in Harsefeld, then within the Duchy of Saxony. After the carve-up of the duchy in 1180, Harsefeld belonged to the Prince-Archbishopric of Bremen, a new territory of imperial immediacy of the Holy Roman Empire. In the mid-16th century, when most inhabitants of the prince-archbishopric adopted Lutheranism, the archabbey remained a stronghold of Catholicism. During the Leaguist occupation under Tilly , the archabbey became a starting point for the attempts of re-Catholicisation.
