Johannes de Indagine (Benedictine)

Johannes de Indagine, born Johannes von Hagen (died 11 August 1469) was a Benedictine monk and a notable abbot of Bursfelde Abbey.

In 1439, after the death of Johannes Dederoth, who reformed Bursfelde Abbey after a period of decline, he was elected his successor as abbot.

[1] During Indagine's period of office, several other monasteries adopted the mode of life of Bursfelde and formed an association, the Bursfelde Congregation, which continued to grow after Indagine's death.

This chapter general was the highest authority in the congregation and was empowered to make very wide-reaching decisions.
