The monastery of Heisterbach was a Cistercian abbey founded in 1189. With the secularization of 1803, Heisterbach Abbey was abolished. Partially sold and demolished, it was not until 1818 that it was decided to preserve the remaining ruins, those of the choir. Count Wilhelm Ernst zur Lippe-Biesterfeld acquired the site in 1820 and had an English landscape garden laid out on the site. In 1840, the count had a mausoleum built on the model of a neo-Gothic chapel. Apart from this, only a barn and the brewery house have been preserved from the former monastery.

The present Holy Trinity Church is probably the third on this site. The oldest part of the church is the sacristy, which was built at the end of the 13th century against an earlier wooden church. In the 14th century, the present three-aisled basilica was built of stone in the lower parts and brick in the upper parts. In the late Middle Ages, perhaps in the 15th century, the sturdy but low church tower was added. The high medieval spire was destroyed in the town fire of 1702 and was later replaced by a hood. The north and south transepts date from the 15th century.
