Monastisches Westfalen: Klöster und Stifte 800-1800

Monastic Westphalia: Monasteries and Abbeys 800-1800 is a German language book published in 1982.

This book focuses on the comprehensive history, development, and influence of monastic institutions, collegiate churches (Stifte), and religious orders in the Westphalia region of Germany over 1,000 years. It covers their role in political, social, and economic life, including women's monasticism and architectural evolution.

I believe the book is out of print, but I have seen copies for sale on
Booklooker and AbeBooks.
Booklooker requires an EU billing and shipping address. Abebooks appears to support international billing and shipping, it just comes at an elevated cost.

I managed to find an available copy on Amazon for $16 + $4 shipping. The cover has some wear and eta is a month, but the price was right.
