The Franciscan Church is an early Gothic, three-nave, flat-roofed basilica. Today it is again the monastery church of the Franciscan monastery in Ingolstadt, which has been a Capuchin monastery since 2006. It is 71.70 meters long, 20.65 meters wide and 28.60 meters high. Like many other Franciscan churches, it has no steeple but only a small ridge turret.

The patronage "Mary (or in other spelling:) Ascension Day" of the Ingolstadt Franciscan Church refers to one of the many commemoration days or festivals in honor of the Blessed Mother Mary.
