After the devastating fire of 1276, the monastery was rebuilt.
The monastery church of St. Mary Magdalene also dates from this period.
It later became dilapidated and was rarely used. When the second southern nave pillar with the vault collapsed on March 13, 1818, the city council decided, with the consent of the citizens, to demolish the church, which had not been used since 1806. Only the north wall, which adjoined the monastery buildings, and the chapels built into it remained. Carl Julius Milde secured some of its altars and the stone sculptures of the wise and foolish virgins. They are now in the St. Anne's Museum. With the introduction of the Reformation in 1531, the monastery was dissolved. A poorhouse was set up in the building, and some rooms were used commercially. A school building was built in place of the demolished church between 1874 and 1876.

From 1893 to 1896, the castle monastery was once again structurally altered:

The upper floor of the cloister was demolished and replaced by a new extension, and the remaining Gothic building elements were redesigned. The complex was given the rich neo-Gothic façade facing Große Burgstraße, which has been preserved to this day.

The Maria Magdalenen Church, also known as the Burgkirche, was the monastery church of the Burgkloster in Lübeck.
It was demolished in 1819 because it was in disrepair.
Its rich furnishings form the basis for the collection of sacred art from the Middle Ages in the St. Anne's Museum.
