The Jesuit church was built between 1680 and 1689 according to the principles of the Voralberg master builders as a baroque unit room with impressive, magnificent stucco work in the Italian style. The high altar made of marbled wood shows the image of the Assumption of Mary by Franz Carl Stauder.

With the "Ambassadorenkrippe" a unique rarity lures all nativity lovers into the most beautiful Baroque city in Switzerland.
The Solothurn "Ambassadorenkrippe" is an unique ensemble of baroque nativity figures in Switzerland. Presumably from the middle of the 18th century come the approximately 60 ornately crafted crib figures. The lifelike wax heads carry individual facial features. Magnificent garments made of historical fabrics adorn the figures.
The nativity scene is exhibited in the Jesuit church in the old town of Solothurn, from late November to early January.
