    It was built between 1720 and 1723 as a cavalry barracks, planned by Jakob Prandtauer, who was also responsible for construction supervision. Prandtauer developed the type of cavalry barracks together with Christian Alexander Oedtl. The two master builders designed barracks complexes with multiple courtyards in three towns (Krems, Stockerau and Ybbs), each of which had space for around 270 soldiers and 340 horses. From 1780 onwards, the building was used as a poorhouse and in the 19th century it was adapted to care for the mentally ill. From 1858 to 1861, the building was expanded to include a kitchen wing and a church.
