History
It was built between 1626 and 1631 and was consecrated by Archbishop Pázmány Péter of Esztergom. After the Turks occupied Érsekújvár, the tower of the church was used as a minaret between 1633 and 1685.
In 1842 a lower grammar school was established in the monastery. The building was damaged in the wars of the 20th century and lost its Baroque appearance. It has been inhabited by Franciscans again since 1991. During the Hungarian War of Independence of Prince Rákóczi Ferenc II between 1703 and 1711, the Hungarian commander Bercsényi Miklós lived in the monastery for some time. In 1906 a plaque was unveiled in his memory.
There is also a plaque of Archbishop Széchényi György of Esztergom, who granted Érsekújvár town status in 1691.
A plaque commemorates the priests and monks held captive in the building by the Communists between 1950 and 1951.
The Franciscan monk P. Bartalos Lajos Engelbert also has a memorial plaque on the building.
