The construction of our Bolzano monastery was started in 1599 by Baron Engelhard Dietrich von Wolkenstein. The church was consecrated in 1603. The monastery was enlarged in 1673 and the church in 1678.
On October 4, 1810, the Italian government closed the monastery. The noble lady Katharina von Hepperger bought the monastery back in 1816 and gave it to the Capuchins for perpetual use (“Hepperger clause”). The monastery was badly damaged in the Second World War, but was rebuilt in 1946/47. The last major reconstruction of the monastery and church renovation took place in 1993/94.
