In 1258, the Imperial master cook (which was an administrative title) Lupold of Nordenberg founded a Dominican nunnery on today's site.

The church was consecrated in 1265 and the convent's buildings were completed during the 14th and 15th centuries. The mere expansion of the area expressed the wealth of the nuns: the real property stretched from the Klingengasse in the east to the Klostergasse in the south.
