Saint Fidelis Monastery

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The monastery of Saint Fidelis is a former Capuchin - monastery in Regensburg , Uhland Street 10. Its remaining buildings are under monument protection .

After the old Regensburg Capuchin monastery was closed in 1810 in the course of secularization , a new Capuchin monastery could not be founded in Regensburg until 1916. The building and the attached church were designed in that year by the architect Heinrich Hauberrisser in the neo- baroque style and completed in 1921. A boys' seminar was attached to the monastery , which was closed in 1972 due to lack of demand. A comprehensive renovation of the church took place in 1976/1977. In 1991 the convent was abolished and the monastery closed. The parish Herz Marien took over the Church of St. Fidelis as a branch church . The rooms of the boys' seminar are used by the neighboring Goethe-Gymnasium, the residential wing was converted into a student residence after the last monks moved out in 1994 .
