    Church of St. Antonius Vohburg - This house, a two-storey eaves-side building with a tail gable and segmented-arched windows, was built by the electoral court clerk Franz Zwick.

    In 1725 the Franciscans came to Vohburg and took over the Zwick mansion as a monastery building.

    On May 4, 1726, the foundation stone was laid for the Franciscan church of St. Anton von Padua. The church was consecrated on June 22, 1728.

    With the secularization and the dissolution of the Franciscan monastery on April 1, 1802, the church and monastery building were empty. The church was then used as a storeroom, theater hall and, in 1866, as a horse stable.

    1880 Repurchase of the church by Dean Ulrich Steinberger and transfer of the bones of Blessed Farmer Johann from the Andreaskirche to St. Antonius. Also at this time, a girls' school was set up in Zwick's house, which was run by the Poor School Sisters until it closed in 1970.

    In 1945 the church was damaged in an air raid - it was repaired in 1947.
    1995 - 1998 a general refurbishment was carried out by Geistl. Councilor Joachim Beuchert.


    In 1995/1996, the Sparkasse Pfaffenhofen acquired the Zwick'sche Haus and converted it into a modern commercial building with a doctor's surgery.
