The 15th century St. Ursula Church originally belonged to the Dominican monastery. After the Reformation, like all Catholic churches in Transylvania, it became the property of the Lutherans. In 1728, after Transylvania was liberated from the sphere of Ottoman influence and the Austrian administration was established, the building complex was assigned to the Ursuline nuns. The church underwent several radical renovations, which led to its transformation from a Gothic building into the current Baroque style building.

Ursuline Church in Sibiu is a Roman Catholic church built in the 15th century in the center of Sibiu. She was part of the convent of Dominican friars. In 1543, after the Protestant Reformation, the Saxon population of Hermannstadt converted to Lutheranism, and the Catholic churches came into the possession of the Lutherans.
