      • Heilwig of Lippe, also known as Heilwig of Schaumburg (c. 1200 – c. 1248/1250) was a German noblewoman. She was countess of Holstein by marriage to Adolf IV of Holstein.


      Life


      She was a daughter of Lord Herman II of Lippe and his wife, Oda of Tecklenburg.
      On 14 February 1246, she founded the Cistercian monastery in Herwardeshude, a village at the mouth of the Pepermölenbek, between the later St. Pauli and Altona. The monastery was confirmed by Pope Innocent IV in 1247. This monastery later founded the monasteries In Valle Virgum, also in Herwardeshude, and in 1530, after the reformation, the Monastery of St. John, which still exists as a Protestant nunnery.


      Legacy


      In 1870, the Heilwigstraße in Hamburg-Eppendorf was named after her.
