The three-naved basilica church was considered the largest church of the order in southern Germany until its closure in 1799. The church and most of its monastic buildings survived, with the monastic buildings converted as barracks and billets for the Bavarian Army, and the church as a customs hall, a drill hall and a hotel until it became the location of the Regensburg Museum of History in 1931. It is run by the city of Regensburg.
